Between the end of summer and the beginning of autumn the season of figs takes place. They are born of the fig tree, a deciduous tree that belongs to the family of the Moráceas, although they are not exactly fruits but infrutescencias, that is to say, sets of fruits. In fact, both the flowers and the fruit of the fig tree are inside a fleshy receptacle of rounded form that is denominated sycoon. The brevae are the first crop of the fig tree that, in the northern hemisphere, takes place between the months of June and July. On the other hand, figs, the second crop of this tree, reach their optimum at the end of August and during the month of September. In contrast, in the southern hemisphere, the shortbreaks are harvested in December and the figs in the month of March . Nevertheless, among the diverse varieties of fig trees, only some produce a harvest of figs and another of briers. Other fig trees, however, only give figs.
