troiano

There is the _fico arnese, _ the smallest of all, and the _fico santillo, _ both of which are best when dried; the _fico vollombola, _ which is never dried, because it only makes the spring fruit; the _fico molegnano, _ which ripens as late as the end of October and must be eaten fresh; the _fico coretorto ( "_ wry-heart" -- from its shape), which has the most leathery skin of all and is often destroyed by grubs after rain; the _fico troiano; _ the _fico arzano; _ and the _fico vescovo, _ which appears when all the others are over, and is eaten in February
