looking for Smith fig tree?

Hello fig friends! So my story is I had heard a lot of good things about the Smith variety and asked about it here on the forum. A generous member was kind enough to send me some cuttings and of course I lost them do to in experience. I also lost a few other varieties ( 2 rare) ;( but learned a lot through trial and error. So I would like to purchase a Smith tree if anyone has this variety available if so just pm me. With that being said I did have some luck. My first year and I had about a 40% success rate. Thankfully for me several generous members shared enough cuttings with me so I was able to have a wonderful winter growing figs in the basement. I really look forward to this year of eating fresh figs. And of course the thrill of trying to justify to my wife why I need to obtain more varieties. Fun
