The breba figs are often large and elongated, while the main crop is more rounded and medium-sized. The tree is noted for its upright, tree-like growth habit, excellent cold hardiness, and strong fruit retention, with figs capable of hanging on the tree for an extended period to develop maximum sweetness. In shorter-season climates, the main crop can ripen quite late, but in regions with long, warm summers it rewards growers with outstanding fruit quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen fully tree-ripened, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSüßer Georg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e offers a refreshing flavor profile that differs from the rich berry notes of many dark figs.

The flesh is firm, dense, and meaty rather than syrupy, with moderate sweetness and a clean, balanced finish. Thanks to its long hang time, the fruit can become even more concentrated and occasionally begin to dry naturally on the tree, further enhancing its sweetness. For growers who appreciate the classic melon-forward character of the finest English Brown Turkey-type figs, Süßer Georg is regarded as one of the most distinctive and flavorful examples of the group.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wildwoven Figs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49408689078499,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/9127\/3699\/files\/IMG_1466.jpg?v=1784053461","url":"https:\/\/wildwovenfigs.com\/products\/susser-georg","provider":"Wildwoven Figs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
