Very nice saute. The figs are much sweeter than usual this year due to the lack of rainfall. This lack of rain concentrates the sugars and you end up with super sweet figs. Linda put up some fig preserves last night. I would post pictures but my phone is in the shop. Maybe tomorrow. I've been picking about a gallon a day of Celeste and a gallon of Cajun Gold, which is a large yellow fig somewhat like a LSU Gold but sweeter and more prolific. This is the first year that I can remember of figs over ripening and drying on the tree. I sometimes find one or two but this year with no rain if I miss one real ripe one yesterday it almost like candy today.

Tony, it's never too late to plant a tree, especially figs. The trees start producing young and you can start picking in 2 to 3 years. Like the saying goes, "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago or today".
