Every large fig tree I see has a lot of fruit.

My two year old trees were just transplanted in June and have almost nothing this year. But my family's tree in Louisiana was planted around 1972 or so, and is a steady, heavy producer.

Others in these forums show large trees laden with fruit. So hang in there!

I'm not sure if you're likely to see them except in these very warm winters, from what I've seen and heard. No matter how many brebas form in the fall, only a very mild winter will allow them to overwinter successfully; I don't see it happening on older trees any more than younger ones but will start keeping better tabs on this. I don't think we've been seeing these kinds of winters with any great frequency in the past; time will tell if they happen more regularly in the future. The winter prior to this one the temperature was in the low single digits, and that is more typical for the overall climate.

I had some breba fruit on several of my young (2-3 years old) trees this year and found it to be less than exceptional compared to the main crop fruit I've been getting, for whatever it's worth. It may be variety dependent to some extent.

Thank you so much appreciate the input.

I am 25 miles east of DC I never got any breba of my fig trees.

Colleague of mine in NoVa has a large fig tree and brought me some giant figs from it 2 weeks ago. Quite tasty.

Would that constitute a breba?
