It didn't look too bad, how does the taste compare to Desert King? Yeah, the weather has been atrocious this month here too, so cool, wet and windy. Feels more like autumn than summer at the moment 😞. I hope the weather improves soon 🤞

This variety is also known as Lampaga or Tiberio. It is grown commercially for brevas in Extremadura, Spain. There is an entry for this variety in Wikipedia es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lampa_Preta. One of the best providers of fig trees in Extremadura (Viveros Dalia) sells seedlings for about 7 euros. BTW lampa means breva in Portuguese.

Lampera preta is supposed to be a suited for fields without irrigation. In the same region where this cultivar is grown (Bancarrota, Badajoz, Spain) they grow other breva cultivar, "de rey", that needs irrigation. The brevas come a bit later but are of higher quality. Maybe it will grow well in Ireland. es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Rey
