I have my list of available trees to take cuttings from ready, but my tree's are not yet dormant.
I ask $2.50 per cutting, you pay shipping.
If anyone would like to get on a list of first come first serve, I will let you know just before taking your cuttings. Then you can pay through my paypal and I will send them off to you.
Here is my list.


all spoken for, until these orders are filled and we will see whats left!
removing varieties as cuttings get asked for...

Both are supposed to be from Malta.
That is about all I can tell you.
The croisic is small and can only give up a few cuttings.

Sorry to say neither have been good producers. The one produces about 1 fig a year.
I would have up rooted and tossed had I needed the room.

Still Im willing to let others try it.

I thought that croisic was one of the four persistent edible caprifigs? I see that no varieties are listed, guess people jumped on that one quick! Way to be Doug :)

I think I have 2 croisic growing now, and as they grow more cuttings will be available.
I had to shut down the sale so I can ship the first batch.
Later I will post more.
Many people have shared with me, I have much energy and money in my orchard.
I'm not going to make a living out of it, I just enjoy spreading these great varieties
with others at a price anyone can afford.
I ship cuttings in flat rate boxes, this allows me to stuff em full and they get
priority shipping. About as fast as it gets with typical usps.
Average shipping is $5.80, I think...larger orders will take larger boxes.
I will ship in the best way I can to save money on shipping.
Share the love.

Doug

I rooted a Croisic last winter just for something different I have
to get duplicates.
The first to fruit was MWasmley with a light fig and yellow center.
I took pictures of it but lost the picture when I had to reformat computer.
They will stay in the ground, some figs like the green greek took 4 years to fruit.
But when it did this year, it was loaded.

Thanks Alan. Many have contributed to adding to my orchard.
Thanks to all of them as well.

Doug

I can't see the list of what you have available, I figure you probably have as many orders as you can handle already, but if you happen to have a: Cole de dame blanca, st gerome/black Tirana, Conradia , Adriatic JH, green ischia, RdB, LSU Scott's Black, VdB, adebberia, Gino's black, hearty Chicago, Malta black
Or UCD black ischia - I would love to talk about buying some cuttings

Candice, you have to follow directions first.
Then read that I already ended the sale.
Not meaning to be rude, but reading the
whole thread answers all your questions.
