EMALYN'S PURPLE
DESCRIPTION
[A fig] ... which I have named Emalyn's Purple (Emalyn is my wife). EP is a seedling of Negronne. EP may be the best tasting fig I have ever eaten. If not, it's certainly in the top 3. The EP tree is extremely vigorous. It's about 10 years old but was over 20 feet tall. The fruit is slightly larger than average size. It is a globular fruit. It has purple skin and red flesh. Last year the fruit had a few brebas but that was the first year it had ever had brebas. What makes the fruit special is the flavor. When fully ripe, the fruit has an extremely rich and complex flavor, similar to, but better than, its parent. That would be good enough, but when the fruit is not quite ripe, it has an amazing sweet-tart flavor that is unusual but wonderful. (910)JN

The Khurtmani (meaning the owner of the bow or nose), Daniel says, is considered by some to be the best fig grown in Israel. It is probably the fig we call Brunswick.

EXCEL
SYN: KADOTA HYBRID, DOTTATO HYBRID
DESCRIPTION

A medium-sized yellow fig with amber pulp, also bred by Ira Condit and released in 1975. Oblate to spherical. Well- adapted in California. Early trials in the Southeast are very promising. Seems to be very hardy. Superb flavor. (001a) (004) Light greenish-yellow skin and amber fleshed figs are sweeter and have a smaller eye than Kadota. Very resistant to splitting they are excellent for canning, drying and eating fresh. Strong vigorous growing tree developed by Ira Condit as an improved Kadota type.. (1158)
