Cuttings in UK anyone?

Hi, just wondering if anyone here in the UK has cuttings for sale/trade please?

I only have brown turkey at the moment,I was gifted a few cuttings for asking at a community gardens today,might have more as time goes on though,if you need/want brown turkey would be happy to trade for pretty much anything

I will hopefully be adding Violette Dauphine,Precose de Dalmatie and White Adriatic soon but plants will likely start small so might be a while.My Jerusalem fig would be a good candidate,currently has 3 stems,layered with soil,provided all 3 root I'll probably have one to trade but I don't know how it would perform where you are

Thank you haslamhulme, your reply is much appreciated. I already have Brown Turkey but as time goes on, if you have any others I would be very grateful.

I have a few small plants of various sorts. I have a Brunswick that is growing well just now and may provide a cutting later in the year. Also Castle Kennedy and Desert King.

I am hoping to take cuttings of all my plants next year. They are all living in an unheated polytunnel just now but I want to try some outside with winter protection, for which I will use the plants taken from cuttings when they are large enough.

Hi Haslam and Doric,

I'll be happy to help you both with a few varieties, as cuttings in Winter, to get you started. As long as you are still members of the Common Market, it should be perfectly legal to ship cuttings :) (Internal European Joke)

I have many, so for instance  Ronde de Bordeaux and some of the best early ripening breba croppers. - we can Exchange want lists via PM and mail in Winter, when cuttings can be taken.


Thanks fighugger!

Thanks for the offer,I think we Europeans will have to engage in a flurry of fig cutting exchanging before Brexit happens after that it could be like USDA,we could have DEFRA knocking on the door to take our cuttings away.You will notice I said WE Europeans,I might have given away there which way I voted ;)
