Cutting scrambled

Earlier this spring, my littlest daughter was "helping" me plant rooted cuttings. and somewhere along the way the tags got separated from the plants.

Secondly I pinched off any fruits early on, so I will not be able to use fruits to identify them this season. I'm sure next season I'd be able ot, but I would really like to positively identify these plants, so I can pay the good karma forward to others searching for cuttings, as many were so kind to me last year.


The possibilities are;

Jacks Quarter Pounder (I'm 90% sure fig "B" if Jack's)
Marseilles
Quantico
Desert King
Peter's Honey
Italian Honey
Chicago Hardy


Fig "A"




Fig "B"




Fig "C"




Fig "D"



None looks like Hardy Chicago to me. I am hoping to take new leaf pix of all mine in the next couple weeks - so may be able to help more then.

Should at least have pix of:
Quarter Pounder
Marseilles (Herman's VS)
Quantico
Desert King
Chicago Hardy

Though I am not offering any help here, I know exactly your feelings...
I have one fig that due to two 2006 (shipped) "loose" tree-twig-tags, and
then only ONE of the whole bunch surviving,  I am still not sure if it is an of the
'Old Home 1895' or 'Dr. O'Bar's Strawberry' variety...
I will know for sure  when it eventfully does  fruit, when comparing it to either
of the original fruit descriptions.

It occurs to me that WE HAVE THE MAKINGS OF ANOTHER CONTEST HERE, perhaps?
