Festivus Green Ischia Cuttings Offer

Happy Holidays everyone!

In the spirit of this time of the year, I would like to offer Green Ischia cuttings to the newbies (and oldies) belonging to this great forum .
3 nice cuttings for $5 shipping and handling.
This is one of my favorite tasting figs. The wife and I literally wrestle over who gets the first and last figs of the year (she usually wins).

Limited to approximately 10-15 packets only! I may even throw in a cutting of some other interesting variety as a surprise bonus. (I have 60+ different varieties) and no, you do not get to choose.

Rules: (Please read carefully)
1. Mainland USA only!
2. Paypal me a gift of $5 for shipping and handling: fmen(at)yahoo.com. (at = @)
3. Please include your name and address in the paypal payment to facilitate faster shipping.
4. No need to IM or email me if rule #3 is followed.
5. I will update the thread as soon as all cuttings are gone.


****Update****

No more requests for now please. I'm actually over the limit at 20 but should be able to handle it.
I was thinking that the bonus cutting should be from my Morocco tree. The original came from Casablanca's sea-port. The infamous Costa Concordia cruise ship was involved, but that's all I'm going to say about that.
It has not produced for me yet, so that's all the information I have on this fig, but I would like to spread it around and eventually get feedback as to how it did for you.

No more requests for now, please. I'm actually over the limit at 20 but should be able to handle it. Thank you all very much for participating in this Festivus event. Special thanks to those who actually paypalled more than the requested $5. That was very unexpected and nice of you.

very nice offer Frank.  You indeed are generous

Hi Frank,

Just a question. How old is that GI tree in the picture?

To everyone else,

Frank graciously provided me a rooted and growing Green Ishia in the summer of 2012. I planted it out last Spring and it is a good grower. It is now about three feet tall and healthy. You can't go wrong with this one. Just remember as with most figs it will taste better with age. Give it time to mature and you will be rewarded with a top caliber fig. Congratulations to the lucky ones and I'm sure he'll have more next year for the rest of you.

Hi Charles, 
I hope you had a great Christmas out in the panhandle.

The mother tree is over 12 years old. She has has contributed many progeny and continues to do so. It came from EL originally.
