Calimyrna is a commercial variety grown in large orchards. It is not popular among many home growers though.

The first criteria to consider is if there are pollinator wasps, without them and their host caprifigs Smyrna varieties will drop the main crop. Calimyrna does not produce a breba.

Your leaves are not a good match according to this chart, Calimyrna is G.

Hi, hoosierbanana,

what is the A type of fig? I saw something like it recently, and none of the people with me knew what it was.

Thanks!

Hi hoosierbanana,

According the picture u gave, I think the leaves are similiar to H, but once again I'm not really sure about this.

Yeah you were right about the pollination. But this variety of fig doesn't need pollination at all. Do you have any idea about the ID?

I don't know, it is not Brunswick which is H. Maybe a Turkish variety?

Really, I don't have any idea at all. I've read an article that there are 4 kind of seedless fig, made from calymirna. Maybe this one of them. But I am not sure. People here loved to changed the name so often, to attract buyer, to increase the sales.

But, thanks btw for the help.
