Description
This medium to large, green, Spanish variety can develop solid sugar spots on the bottom as it ripens. Often considered an Adriatic type fig, it has some slightly different qualities than the typical Adriatic.
Banyols: Described and figured by Estelrich (1910); see also short account by Priego y Jaramillo (1922). Tree large, with drooping branches that suggest a torrent. Leaves large, 3-lobed. Figs medium, oblique-turbinate; skin yellowish brown, checking at maturity; quality good. Used both fresh and dried; cattle feed on them.
