This one is coming into producing a good number of figs, I feel like the LSU tiger is maybe at the borderline for seattle, it's about as late as I'd want to have a fig come ripe, any later and you're likely to get water logged, flavorless figs. LSU Tiger for me has often just gotten the figs in before weather turns bad, and that's been late September/Early October. I bet we'll lose half of the crop to bad weather this year. Where you look at something like Ronde de Bordeaux, we are harvesting almost the entire crop, we are still getting lots of figs right now but we'll end up harvesting most, if not all of the figs from that tree, certainly more ideal main crop timing on that tree, but you can't beat LSU tiger on its sweetness, it's so sweet.
