Annual Wish-List of 6 most desirable fig cuttings for 2014-15

It is about time to start a new thread about “Annual Wish-List of 6 most desirable cuttings for 2014-15 ".


Many members have started listing their wish-list under their signature. That is one way to seek trade opportunity.
And this Annual Wish-List thread is another way of seeking what you are looking for in the coming season and provides opportunities for making  trades or acquiring cuttings or plants in any other way. It provides a single place/thread to find out who is seeking what that you may have for initiating a trade opportunity.

This thread may not be helpful to all but I am posting it with the thought that it still may help some members.

So, if you have some cuttings on your wish-list, please list only the 6 most desirable cuttings on your wish-list for the year 2014-15.

 

To make the thread efficient, it is advisable:

(i) .. To have only one post per member with the actual wish-list,keeping it updated as required in order to keep your post valid and the threadefficient.

(II).. Trade related mutual discussions should be done outside the thread through PMs or emailsl.

 

Good luck with your Wish-List.

 

Here is my wish-list of six:

1- Maltese Beauty   ( promise ...thank you )

2- Ice Crystal     received ...thank you )
3-  Sbayi

4- Deanna          ( received ...thank you.... died...received again )

5- Niagara Black  (received ...thank you )
6- Galicia Negra

I have cuttings for trade in exchange (....or for the cost of postage and handling if that is preferred).

I pick my variety's mostly on cold hardiness. I had a lot of success rooting, with a couple exceptions, so I looking forward to trading some of my duplicates for these.

1. Black Bethlehem  (had 6 cuttings from a generous member and all failed)
2. Black Greek (cold hardy)
3. Hardy Hartford (had cuttings but all failed)
4. Macool ( good taste)
5. Keddie ( cold hardy)
6. Lyndhurst White ( don't have a lot of green figs and it seems cold hardy)

Others:  
Sweet George,Salem Dark,  Ladreck English Brown Turkey, and few unknowns that survived this winter.
I think this year will be last for rooting because I am nearing full capacity

1. Colar
2. Florea
3. Hollier
4. Genovese Nero
5. Maltese Beauty
6. Smith

Only got room for one more!

CDDG

I've already got CDDN and believe I have a trade in the works for CDDB so only the Gris is missing for the 3 sisters to complete my collection. I just may have to throw in the towel after she makes it home. I have an extra CDDN, Atreano, Unknown Peach/Apricot or RDB to trade for Gris if anyone is interested.

Hi,
What can come and be presented as a work horse and good. But I'm not for now actively searching, just lurking around and if it can happen then :
1. Desert king
2. Hardy chicago
3. Lampo's collection <-- that does count for 1 or ?
4. Noire de whatever ( Caromb, sollies, barbentane ...)
5. I would need to rent the garden of my neighbors for space to, so I'll stop for now .

@OttawanZ5: I have Ice crystal . - Did you read the post about Icecrystal ? ... Mine just dropped the crop -10 figs-, and Bass had "suggested" (before I could see with my own eyes ) that strain is a smyrna - no wasp no crop - ... Damn it !
I hate nurseries hiding or not understanding the importance of such a detail ! I'll give one year or two more to mine - just in case ... I have to check if I have a money back warranty for such a misinformation from the nursery !

What fun! Here's my dream list for '15:

1) Vernino/Pasquale
2) LSU Scotts Yellow
3) LSU White Honey
4) LSU Jack Lily 
5) Southern Brown Turkey
6) LdA


Hoping and a wishing for: Lebanese Red, Pananas Purple, Longue d' Aout, Aubique Petit, Keddie and Hunt.

Most of these I did not know existed before frequenting this forum. 
Not actively searching as I currently have my hands full, but if one were to come along, I wouldn't say no...

1. Ronde de Bordeaux - (A forum member may be helping me out with this one)
2. Kadota
3. Lattarula
4.
Strawberry Verte
5. Black Bethlehem
6. Negronne
