Trying to track down info on Fat Girl, possibly Fat Boy fig, a local nickname for an old southern variety.
Here is photo. Do these figs look like Magnolia?
Check with the āFigs R Usā forum.
Thanks Richard.
It does not appear to mention your āFat Girlā variety, but there is a U.C. Monograph of fig varieties which may be of future use. It also lists a number of prior catalogs of fig varieties at the outset.

I added photo, see above.
Yes it does, thank you. Are Magnolia and Brunswick the same fig?
I think soā¦ Although Iāve never seen a Magnolia. There is a chance it could also be the same as āLong Brown Honey Figā which might be the same as Goutte dāOr, I have one that came from Easton MD that Iāve been trying to figure out which it is of the 2. It has had trouble most winters, but looks like it should ripen some more fruit this year. The eye was tighter and the flavor different than Brunswick but the leaves are the same.
