Description

This is a very good brown skinned Caprifig, that has 3 good and reliable overlapping crops, and at times produces a few edible Mammoni figs. When the figs turn brown they are mature, and they are still firm, but if left on the tree, they will turn dark purple to black, go soft, and then ferment and fall.The Profichi crop produces medium sized figs with a great amount of pollen and wasps. The Mamme crop will very often have a small amount of pollen to pollinate early figs.
