Will Fig Trees Set Fruits without Required Chill Hours

For South Florida fig growers:

Are you able to get your fig trees to set fruit without the required chill hours? I thought I read someone from South Florida post somewhere that he is able to do this. I am trying to confirm or validate this. If yes, what variety(ies) will be best?

Having recently retired, I plan to split my time between California and the Philippines (tropical weather - none below 65 degrees Fahrenheit). I would like to try to grow some fig trees there if I can get them to set fruit.

Thank you,

George U
