Wonderful dried or fresh, these very sweet, early ripening figs are yellow outside and purple inside; don't know if the 'honey' in their name is from their honey-color or their honey-sweetness... or both! SUN/Med

This is probably something else since I gave it that name; it is a fairly round and very sweet fig with purple flesh and a light skin. Probably zone 7, but never freezes as low as 15 °F.
