Very impressed with this nursery

I just received a package containing three fig plants from Rolling River Nursery, Orleans, CA.  I am attaching a photo of the three, left to right: Atreano, Panache, Osborne's Prolific.    Huge trees, great foliage, well packed.  A family member sent them to me. 
     From the price on their website, it appears that all of the trees are $20, though for $65 you can get a 4 pack such as Negronne, Osborne Prolific, Latturula and Norman's Yellow OR a 4 pack of Black Jack, Brown Turkey, Flanders and Dessert King.   Has anyone else ever purchased anything from them?   
    I will try to take better pictures once I get a new camera...using my phone for now. Will do so once I get them potted up, but I am giving them a few days to adjust before doing so.   I was just SO excited when I opened the box!!

Like Christmas in August or like a birthday present to yourself. I too love to open the box and see my new babies even if I know what it is that is coming, can't wait to open the box and play. Please do show us your pics.

No pictures.  You may need to click on the 'edit' link of your post, click 'go advanced' then click 'save' again in order to get them to show up (this is a known bug on the forum).

I see the photos, and I thought I had done the "trick" after I created the post.  So, I did it yet again.  Will someone let me know if they can see the photo?  Thanks.

I can see one photo of figs in front of a window.

I see it now.  and a very cute pup.

I will try to get better individual photos once the leaves settle down.  And the pup is Teddy, our 3 yr old German Shepherd.  He thinks he was missing out on something and was watching me through the window.  He keeps me easily entertained.

nice trees good luck with them!

Hi Sara, I bought Tena, Atreano, and Norman's yellow from them several years ago. I see they are keeping up with their quality. It's nice to get a potted plant with a great root system. I love those deep tree pots they send them in. I've rooted several more trees using those pots and a long twig. Those trees will grow fast for you, especially the Atreano. They are one of the best I've bought from, IMHO. Good luck.

@Tim...How do you like the Norman Yellow and the Tena?  I also will keep those long pots for future use.  For the price, that is one heck of a tree!  Looking forward to figs off of them next year!!  Glad to see someone else has ordered from them also.

Sara, how did fake bomb necklaces get all the rage up there?

I bought an Atreano and Dessert King from them and was very happy with the quality of plant and the packaging.

Sara, those are nice-looking plants. I will have to keep this nursery in mind for NEXT year. I swear, I am not going to buy any more figs this year. No, really. I'm not.

AnnieBee----I can understand completely! 

Caney--I am SO glad it was a fake.  And that guy was arrested about 15 minutes from me.  I know very well where he lived.
