Looking for Orphan fig cuttings. Please PM me.

Brianm, I know it may be a silly question but i dont know so I need to ask, is this a real fig tree named...Orphan?

Yes, it's a UC Davis variety.

Oooh, interesting!!

Haha. I thought you were looking for orphaned fig cuttings. I have a few that are without labels i was going to offer you ;-}

Yes, at first I thought that too...sorta like those tgat no one wanted.

So it looks like theres a thread on Orphan figs! Maybe one of these guys can send cuttings? I am kinda interested in knowing how the fig tastes!

A few years ago I got an Orphan (Jin Ao Fen) from UCD. I heard it would be difficult to grow, just like some other
cultivars not accustomed to the cool Pacific NW. I babied it along and kept it in my greenhouse, but it looked like
a disease killed it the second year. Can't say what exactly went wrong or what I'd do differently next time.
Now that I picked-up an Olympian, I have no wish list because I'm trying to stick with the handful of varieties that
are known to do well in W. WA. 

According to UC davis 2005 fig report, Orphan figs are big and sweet and early ripen, It's Breba figs has brix level 25, it is a extremely sweet fig, Also, figs weight 105g/each , it is big fig.

It looks very good, I guess that it must have other weakness that nobody mention it.

Thanks to a kind member I have cuttings coming. I believe this could be a good one here in the heat.

Congratulations, Brian! I was surprised to know that there is an actual tree named "Orphan." Glad this worked out for you.

Are Deanna and Orphan the same variety?

No they are different

Here is Orphan UCD.

I'm new to figs but curious to try different ones. I just purchased. Celeste today. How does one go about finding folks to sell / donate cuttings to a newbie ?

ADelmanto had orphan rooted cuttings. If still interested you could check with him. I received one from him.
