I got mine late in the season and got a little lazy/forgetful on this one and didn't label the cuttings when I bagged them up. I am about 99% sure I have them correct now but I would like to see a few pics of some of your guys new cuttings that are leafed out to compare. Mine seem to have a pretty distinctive leaf shape. I'll post a pic when I get home from work. Mine were very good rooters.

If you have either of these leaves, or both, you are good to go.

Thanks. That pic makes me feel a lot better. Here is what all of mine look like so far.

My only surviving Raspberry Latte rooted cutting has only one leaf and a green tip staying in status quo for the last 2.5 months. Nothing is moving it forward or backward.
If I knew the roots were good and plenty I would have taken the risk and put it in full sun which would have made the only and lonely leaf drop but a couple of weeks later would start with healthy growth like I did with some other rooted cuttings (which I knew had some good roots).

It is strange how things are so different in regards to rooting. I see threads where people say how easy a certain variety is and then I can't get it to root, but on the raspberry latte I had no trouble. I ended up with 5 plants from the 3 cuttings I got.

My Raspberry Latte was one of the best to root.
I will be home on the 17th and will post pic of it then.

Can't wait for it to fruit.

Where are you all sourcing the cuttings of this fig from? Does the name have much to do with the taste?
