English Figs

Hi,
just wondered if there is any uk based fig swappers about,
my collection is small at the minute but growing fast,
kind regards

 Luke,


Have you got cuttings of the Lambeth palace fig tree in London ?
You may get interesting varieties too in the Tarring fig orchard :

there are few memebers from UK on this forum, i'm sure they will update with their experience. i would be interested to find out what grows in the UK.

Thanks for the links,

I have at present :
rouge de bordeaux
Brown turkey
madeleine de deux saisons
Noire de caromb,
brunswick or Longue daout, was a gift a few years ago.
4 Italian varieties I got from family in Italy,1 of them has produced very well for my uncle, over the 20/30 years he has had the trees here in england.

Cuttings I have going at the minute, white marseilles,Brunswick,Desert King
