DESCRIPTION
Offered by John J Cole in 1867. Described as having fruit which was above medium size with pale greenish yellow skin and opaline flesh "remarkably rich and sugary.. One of the most delicious figs in cultivation" A slow growing, dense, hardy tree for short-season, cool-summer areas. Has a light breba crop. Offered by Goodman’s Nursery from 1890's. Variety grown in NSW 1890's. Still available commercially in the USA. Medium to large, skin is dark reddish brown, flesh golden & very sweet. A good fresh eating fig with a light breba crop and heavy main crop. The tree is upright & will grow in the shade. Ripens late. Does well in cooler climates but not in warm areas. Still available from members of the South Australian Rare Fruits Association. NB: In the USA the variety named 'Blanche' is noted as having a lemon flavor in the flesh but this characteristic is not mentioned in the Australian literature. (Australia) (021) [Osborne's Prolific, Archipel, Neveralla] Good breba crop. Main crop variable in size, medium to large, bronze skin tinged violet, pulp amber. Fruit has better flavor in cool climates (Facciola 1990) (Burnley 1896). (Brunnings 1916) (Australia)(060)

DEANNA

DESCRIPTION
A medium to large, golden yellow fig with strawberry pulp. From Condit's breeding program. I acquired this one in 1997 and failed to keep notes on its leaf shape. It has not fruited for me so I could not record the shape and character of the fruit. A. J. Bullard of North Carolina says it is an excellent fig. Apparently hardy. (006) [One of] Dr. Condit's varieties [which] came out of the breeding program at Riverside, Calif. and were selected on the basis of being crack- and split-resistant; most have a small eye. All have very high sugar content and are very resistant to decay. In addition to the varieties listed, there are several others that I have not included as they are still being evaluated. (011) Large, yellow skin, yellow pulp, splits but doesn't decay. (011) A large fig suited to the fresh market, greenish skin, very popular in the USA. (014) Commercial US variety that is not widely available in Australia. . A late large fruiting variety with light green/yellow skin and amber colored flesh. (Australia) (021) A Condit hybrid. In the trade, but apparently never officially released. (001b)Like most Condit hybrids, it bears largish yellow fruit. Good flavor. Killed in 2001.(001c)

DESERT KING
SYN: KING, CHARLIE
DESCRIPTION
Origin Madera, Calif. 1920. Large, skin is deep green, minutely spotted white, pulp strawberry red. Sweet, delicious fresh or dried. Commonly matures good fruit without caprification near the coast. Tree highly vigorous. Hardy, best adapted to cool areas. (023)(075) (026) (026a) A San Pedro type fig originally introduced in 1930 in California. The fruit is large pyriform with deep green skin. The flesh is strawberry red. Sweet, delicious fresh or dried. Need to be pollinated, 'Caprified ' to have good fruit set. [D]oes well in cool areas, even growing in coastal British Columbia. Commercially available in the USA but no known sources in Australia. (Australia) (021) San Pedro type. Hardy, best adapted to cool areas such as the Pacific Northwest. (026) (026a) Hardy, good for temperate climates such as the Pacific Northwest; crops once a year, in late July or early August; the fruit is green-skinned and pink-fleshed. (036) Figs, although generally disease resistant, many varieties of fig need more heat than provided in western Washington. Desert King, Brown Turkey, Lattarula, Neveralla, Peter's Honey (or Italian Honey) are [some] early varieties that will ripen reliably. (038) White fig (green-skinned) with strawberry colored flesh. Very productive and reliable. Ironically, excellent variety for the coast or other cool areas. Good for drying. Ripens one crop in late July. (057) Dark green skinned fig with pink flesh. Matures in cool climates and can produce from root suckers when frozen back. Excellent quality, fresh or dried.(063) Desert King is primo for the Portland area, as it is the most reliable breba producer. (937)

DIREDO
SYN: Di REDO
DESCRIPTION
{One of] Dr. Condit's varieties [which] came out of the breeding program at Riverside, Calif. and were selected on the basis of being crack- and split-resistant; most have a small eye. All have very high sugar content and are very resistant to decay. In addition to the varieties listed, there are several others that I have not included as they are still being evaluated. Large, yellow-green skin, amber pulp. (011) The University of California has maintained a fig cultivar improvement programsince 1922. The "Conadria" and "DiRedo" cultivars were released to the industry from this program in the mid 1950s and the "Tena" cultivar was selected and released in the mid 1970s. The key to the development of hybrid fig seedlings that are persistent or of the "common" type came in 1942 when Dr. Ira Condit discovered a unique type of caprifig growing at Cordelia, California. This caprifig, thought to be a European cultivar named "Croisic," was parthenocarpic, edible and could pass on the persistent characteristic to a portion of a seedling population developed from it. In time, through the efforts of Dr. William Storey, the Cordelia caprifig was improved through hybridization. By the late 1970s, three superior persistent caprifigs had been identified for use as pollen parents, each bearing heavy loads of fruit with green skin, white meat and amber pulp. One of the caprifigs contained genes of the Calimyrna cultivar. By the late 1980s, with additional hybridization, four new persistent caprifigs had been identified by James Doyle, each containing a varying percentage of the Calimyrna genome.(047)One of Condit's favorites and one intended for commercial growers, also an Adriatic cross. Released in 1957. Not notably vigorous and not a commercial success. (001b)One of Condit's favorites and one intended for commercial growers, also an Adriatic cross. Released in 1957. Not notably vigorous and not a commercial success. (001b) Info from Commercial Dried Fig Production in California, University of California, Leaflet 21051, p. 5, November 1978: DiRedo is another selection originating from the University of California breeding program. It is as productive as Adraitic, bu t it has a smaller eye and thus fewer quality problems. The dried figs are similar to those of Adriatic, but the tree leafs out 10 to 12 days later. There is an off-type (low-yielding) DiRedo present in some DiRedo orchards. Care should be taken not to select wood for propagation from such trees.(049b)

DOTTATO
SYN: KADOTA
DESCRIPTION
A honey fig, medium to large, richly flavored, sweet and of excellent quality, especially if the weather is hot. Probably is the most important single fig cultivar grown. (013) A very old Italian heritage variety praised by the Roman writer Pliny ( 23-79 AD ) . Fruit is medium sized with yellowish green skin; the flesh is amber, tinged pink at center; rich flavor. Small breba crop but good main crop. The tree is upright and needs an annual pruning to slow it's growth. Does better in a hot, dry climate. Commercially available in the USA but no known sources in Australia. (Australia) (021) Native of Abruzzes, it carries different local names as Kadota, Fig of Abruzzes, Gentile, or still White Pacific in ÉtatsUnis. The leaves are average, of type 3 in 5 little marked lobes, and it has a very good capacity in the conservation. Used as well frîciche as sandbank or in jam, this Italian variety remains clear in full maturity. [Translated from French](046)
