I'm interested in cuttings and/or trades

I live in the Pacific NW (Seattle area) and I am interested in expanding my very modest fig collection.  I have Lattarula, Black Mission, Negronne, and Peter's Honey Fig.  We have a fairly mild climate here, but a lot of cloudy skies and precipitation.  Winter is almost entirely above freezing, but we can get a couple of days that might go as low as 15F.  My existing fig trees are fairly small, have been in the ground for just a couple of years, and I am just starting to get some fruit. I don't do anything to protect my existing trees and they seem to handle the winters fine.

I would appreciate it if I could get some cuttings of figs that might do well here.  I will, of course, pay postage, and/or can send some of my own cuttings in exchange.  I also grow quite a bit of hardy bamboo, both running and clumping, and could trade small potted bamboo for small potted figs.

Please click on my screen name and send me a message if you are interested in trading or can help out with some cuttings.  Thanks.

hey, Kudzu! welcome to the forum!! A cpl of varieties that come to mind known to do well in the PNW are King/Desert King and Osborn Prolific.
