Dr. Gowaty
Dr. Gowaty
Dr. Gowaty is a rare Israeli fig variety with a fascinating history. Cuttings were brought from Israel to the United States by Dr. Gowaty and preserved for decades on a family farm in northern Alabama before being shared with the wider fig-growing community.
This productive common (self-fertile) fig produces both a breba crop and an early main crop. The large green figs develop a beautiful amber interior, sometimes showing pink tones when fully ripe. The flesh is soft and flavorful, offering a refreshing honeydew melon sweetness combined with delicate berry notes and a pleasant fig aroma.
Dr. Gowaty is valued not only for its excellent flavor, but also for its adaptability. The vigorous tree has demonstrated strong performance in cooler climates, good productivity, and the ability for fruit to hold quality through challenging weather conditions.
For growers seeking a unique fig with an unusual melon-like flavor profile and a proven history of performance, Dr. Gowaty is an excellent addition to the collection.
