Not necessarily your favourite fruit to eat, but what is/are your favourite fruit tree(s) to grow based on survival rate, fruit yield, ease of maintenance, ease of harvest, grass-killing prowess, and any other combination of factors? What is/are your least favourite? If you have photos or diagrams to illustrate your point, even better!

(If you provide your region and/or Köppen-Geiger or Trewartha climate zone, it will help others to know what to plant or what to avoid!)

You have weak/lazy birds. No offence to them. Where I live, we have... advanced birds. They are fully equipped with the biological equivalents of bulletproof vests, haz-mat suits, armoured fighter jets with fully-guided heat-seeking targeting systems, and whatever it is that lets giraffes eat the acacias despite all of the biting ants that live in them. (I'm fine with sharing the fruit, but I don't really have a choice.)

So you do have the purple figs then?

Yeah, purple. I think we have a black mission and brown turkey tree. The turkey produces much more.
