What's your fastest growing cutting this year?

Mine is Desert King. Grew fast even in near freezing temps and now has put on lots of growth in the warmth. Already in 15 gallon pot.

Paradiso and Golden Celeste that I got from Jon. The are already in 1 gal pots outside. Have nice strong leaves.

I have Atreano and Ronde de Bordeaux. Both are growing rather vigorously.

Violette Sollies rooted very quickly for me this year. Tons of huge roots everywhere. I potted them up 1 month after using the new bag method and they were bursting.

not in specific order.. 

Quadsaya (?) Syrian Big Yellow
Marius's Unknown Greek
Pastiliere Baud
Paradiso Bronze VS
Paradiso Nero
Unknown Syrian/Turkish
Nero 600M

above all showed great growth. 

By far, Ronde De Bordeaux from Baud, it was a bareroot that I bought from him (no worries I complied fully with the Canadian Gov't in the importation and did everything they required) it took forever to grow, but in the last 5 weeks or so, it has grown 2-2.5 feet long (one branch is longer than the other) this will make a great step over fig I think and that's how it will be used.

My top four would be:
Italian White,
Latarulla,
Colasanti White,
Petite Negri

From cuttings to full flourish - Ventura or Brunswick

The Reverse I got from Jon, less than a week in the moss box and had big roots top to bottom. Had to put into 1 gallon pots. Those things are beasts. LOVE IT!

Lattarolla, I mean Lattarollazilla.  It's a monster that must have been fed by nuclear energy!

The cuttings that I got from Kerry aka Drivewayfarmer, were very vigorous;
Ronde de Bordeaux
Gino's Black
LSU Tiger
Fast to root and fast to leaf out.

Improved Celeste
Carini
Navid's UDG

These three all are great rooters and growers.

Bryant (NY unknown) survived the gnats, cold, inexperience, overwatering, underwatering, hot scalding sun at the window and it a winner for me for sure.  Hope its figs are as great as its leaf growing. Thanks, P.!

By far it's been Sunfire, took off like a champ

Black Madeira and Col de Dame were both vigorous rooters this year. I had trouble with Violette de Bordeaux for some reason.
