Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Medium, green-yellow fruit with thick skin and amber, almost translucent flesh; very sweet, few seeds.

Vigorous, needs plenty of summer heat to ripen fully.

Mainly a main crop; ideal for canning and drying.

As the Italian Dottato, one of the world's most important processing figs.
