Jason I know what you mean I too used my phone and couldnt read the instructions too good and dont believe I ordered properly either

As computer geeks are fond of saying, we have to "RTFM".  I had to re-do my order 3 times.  Every time I re-read the instructions, I discovered something else I had done wrong.  First I put everything in alpha order by variety. Then I organized everything by pricing codes.  Then I realized I had overlooked the quantity limitations on the "E" and "Z" varieties.  If I do get any cuttings, I/m sure Jon is going to tack on a nuisance fee.

Jon,
Godiva?  Dagoba? Solid chocolate?  Filled centers? Something else?

Rafed and Diesler,
Avoiding detection by the spouse can be improved if you:
1.  Carefully coordinate shipping with the provider of the fig stuff;
2.  Have stuff delivered to a neighbor; or
3.  Have your mail held at the Post Office if you know a LOT of stuff is coming in. ("Gee, Honey,looks like we didn't get any mail today.")
4.  Take a long drive to pick it up.
The best one was when I picked up a 7' tree from ejp3 last year, dragged it out of the car and onto the deck in the dead of night (into the midst of a LOT of other pots)  and convinced the spouse that one of mine had had a "growth spurt".  No, I don't feel guilty.  Well,... maybe a little.

Nothing beats See's. I see that they have finally made it to the east coast.

Jon, See's was always my mom's favorite too! She grew up with it in L.A. It really is good.

Tim, I grew up in LA in a part of the city called Woodland Hills.  Years ago, See's wasn't sold nationwide, and people who moved from LA, or Calif. would have friends send it to them, and take it back when visiting, etc. It is still near impossible to beat.

See's !?

Jon see's chocolates are the best. I was fortunate enough to get 4 boxes last year from my hawaiian cousins who bought them in San Diego and shipped them to us for Christmas man they are good. My little cousin's were circling the box like vultures and I was guarding it like a Pit-Bull.

Akram,

Here's a link: http://www.sees.com/   I hope this works! 

OK, They are a little scuffed from being shipped overnight by FedEx. They arrived from a very nice forum member who was excited about getting her cuttings next week. This beats milk and cookies:no contest. And we haven't even talked about dark chocolate versus milk, nuts and chews versus soft centers, etc.

OK that is See's. It probably beats some of the dried figs (some).

Nice picture and good timeing for Valentines day !

Looking at the available list just 4 fun, I noticed that it lists "Chicago Hardy" as well as "Hardy Chicago" as separate verities even though the Variety description for "Chicago Hardy" refers back to "Hardy Chicago".
If they are the same, would it not perpetuate confusion or create more of it?

All paid orders have been shipped. If you do not receive your order by Saturday, it is either not paid as of last night, or I did not receive it.

Sue's Portuguese twigs are gone except  for Preta and some odd shaped or short pieces of Branca. Her Saratoga/Chico Strawberry is still available, along with quite a few other good selections.

Received my order today, nice fat healthy cuttings. All have already been scrubbed, bleached and set to root (my wife mistakingly though I was making dinner when she came in tonight.  Took her to dinner instead)

Between these and cuttings I procured from one other source (known to the forum members as a great ebayer) the cuttings I've gotten this year are by far some of the best I have seen in all the years i've been doing this.  More than just a couple were 1/2 inch or thicker and 2 were almost an inch in diameter.  I'm hoping by St. Patty's I'll be seeing the green (and white below the soil-line as well!!)

Chills,

That's great to here.
You and Al and I should meet this summer.

For what I've ordered and will order I think by August they will strap me with that outfit and I just can't think of the name but they use on the wackos when they throw them in the white cushioned room.

Just another basket case. LOL LOL

Rafed,

Your straight jacket is waiting....

haha,
Little John

I also recieved my scion today and did the usual used my fingers and tap water only to clean them and bada bing put them in right into perlite mix .
Jon thanks and you know what i mean by this ---- storing my selective few plants i have
You got me when i opened up the package. ; ) 

Got mine too!  It's Christmas in the Catskills!  Ran to Costco and got more plastic bins.  If all of these root, I'm in trouble.

C.J.

Rafed, I'll bet you I'm a lot closer to the padded room than you are.  I didn't order much from Jon this year, but I've got a UC DAVIS order still to arrive and I'll bet that even without it you don't even come close.

At least I'll be able to share cuttings with you this summer. 

~Chills

Maybe Tigers new residence will add a wing for Fig Addicts. I already see a waiting list and growing as I type. lol 

Sal, sign me up! I'm real sick! Last night I counted 58 varieties(38 in ground trees, 20 new varieties of sticks in various stages, many in multiple, and 6 other varieties with duplicates in 1-3 gallon nursery pots. Help!  Tim

Sure hope you fig nuts have family that will help you eat all those when they get ripe fruit. If not send to me  ; )
I would think that some animals in future years might start getting plump in fig land area's as well.  ; )

Gene said he's going to have to open "Fig Mart" in Louisiana, I told him I would run the Texas franchise for him! LOL Nobody eats figs in my family but me. Hope the neighbors like figs.

Last call for anyone wanting fig cuttings. I don't have a list, but there are some cuttings left, Panache, Celeste, Black Mission, Ventura, etc. most things are gone, but not quite everything. In a few days, adios till next year.

If you want some cuttings to practice rooting with, let me know.
