Fig tree named ‘S-49’

Abstract

A new and distinct variety of fig tree which is denominated varietally as ‘S-49’ is described, and which further produces an attractively colored fig which is ripe for harvesting and shipment of a second crop during late July and early August under the ecological conditions prevailing in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California.

Having thus described and illustrated my new variety of fig tree, what I claim is new, and desire to secure by Plant Letters Patent is: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of fig tree as substantially illustrated and described, and which is characterized principally as the novelty by bearing a large red-purple to purple-skinned fig of the common type, and which further has fruit pulp which has an attractive strawberry-red color, a fine texture, and a sweet and rich flavor, and which further is ripe for a second crop harvesting, and shipment, during late July and early August, under the ecological conditions prevailing in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California.
