Description
Figo Preto was found growing in Point Loma in CA by a Portuguese lady, where it has been growing for about 50 years, discovered in 2008. But it is not a Portuguese fig. Some say it is the same as Violeta. There is no Figo Preto in Portugal. Figo Preto is dark, medium sized, delicious fig and is among the best tasting figs. Widely reported as very similar to Black Madeira, but in many cases, ripens earlier.
