The first fig ripens. We had to share it among the three of us.

In fact it is fun to share such a sweet jewel as  small as a golf ball. It makes us anticipate the other ones that are coming. 

Once again, I read D.H. Lawrence's poem about the fig. 

He had some interesting things to say about it. ;-0

Violette de Bordeaux

Looks soooo luscious...and yes, it's sweet!
