🍐
Common fig
📍 Monticello Ave at Elliott Ave, Charlottesville, VA 22902, USA
🗓 Season: June · July · August · September · October
🔍 When is it ripe?
Two crops: breba (June–July on old wood) and main (Aug–Oct). Ripe figs hang downward, skin may crack, feel very soft, and often show a drop of nectar at the eye. Colour depends on variety (green, brown, purple). A milky sap at the stem means underripe.
Three or four mature fig trees in front of the church on the corner of Elliott and Monticello. Fruit was unripe and still developing when visited second week of September. Probably worth asking someone at the church if you can pick them.
