Unk Lake Spur cuttings for trade.

Got mine today. They look great! Thanks! I'll send you cuttings when my trees go dormant.

Glad to hear from you folks and that was fast!  Hope the rest get theirs today.

Got mine today. Will be sending yours soon, when tree goes dormant. Thanks.

Thanks Charlie! I received mine today, they look great, well prepared and shipped. It will be fun to see what they grow into and produce.

Thank you very much, Charlie! I got the cuttings in the mail today too, so we'll see what will be become of them. :-)

Three more got them, that's good news.  Still a few more wondering about.  Hope all is well.  Did anybody see any mold?

I was shocked at how clean they looked, no mold. When did you want cuttings sent now, December or ????  The tree is big so anytime is OK and will see if I can add some other varieties. Thanks Again Charlie.

Thanks Armando. I would like to wait until they go dormant if possible. If not then any time will do.



 

I'm very grateful and impressed with the trades I have received back thus far.  They include Atreano, MF (Maltese Falcon???), Unknown Sweet Diana, Sicilian White, Bensonhurst Purple, Unk Dark Portuguese and Dalmatie (tree!).  Thank you all. :)

Charlie, I'm getting this variety from you (indirectly).
Let me know if there are any varieties you're still looking for.
I might have one or two of them.

Thanks I hope they do well for you and appreciate the offer.  Do you keep a list of what you have?   

Got them today and they look great nice and clean etc.
Cant wait to start rooting...

Charlie,
Did I ever thank you :)
This is an amazing variety, grows so strong and roots so fast.
It even stinks greater that VdB, LOL
I have to kick it out to my backyard because entire kitchen started to stink like Tom cat, I can't pretend it's not happening to my wife ...

Anyway, thanks again for this wonderful cuttings Charlie, I have a feeling it's going to give us all good tasting fruit by summer.

Looking good Aaron.  Wife has not mentioned smelling anything... yet.  I'm looking forward to hopefully a positive ID from somebody.   

Did anyone get fruit from this unknown variety?  Grew really well for me but no sign of fruit.

Mine are still on the small side.

I have a couple of figs on mine, but it will likely be another month or two before they ripen.

Good to see some talk still going on.  The person who purchased the home where the mother tree abode, piled a bunch of brush on and burned it to the ground, so I was told by the previous home owner. What we all have can be considered rescue cuttings now I guess and so they are all over the country.  

My cuttings of this have no fruits.  They are all single node except a few that sprouted from the wood chip pile and they had a rough Spring with all the flooding we had.  So perhaps next year I will get figs from them.  Hopefully somebody can ID them this year.  

Thanks for keeping it alive. :)

Edited to add:  Please, I have no cuttings of this to share any more.  PM's to that effect are useless lol.

Charlie glad your back! How are all the single nodes doing?

Brian, most of them didn't make it. The ones that did are still small.  

Sad to hear about the tree getting burnt down. Maybe the roots survived the burning?

cool Charlie it will be interesting to find out what they are like in a cpl years.
