Yard Sale Jackpot

Sorry to bring back a really old post. Anyways, I air layered the "little white" in the black pot a couple of times and then left it for dead (its the one with lots of RKN in the earlier pic) in the same spot, uncovered. Another little sprout, about pencil thick, came up in the fall but I just left it. Its been down to 6 degrees this year and below 20 on numerous occasions. When I visited it today, I was shocked to see it still alive - only dead at the very top.

Bump it again when you have fruit photos!  :)

So Addison, did you get good air layers from all three varieties?  I hadn't seen this thread when it was originally started.

You may very well have some special Greek heirlooms on your hands there. I hope you get some nice fruit on all of them this summer. So we can see pics of course ;-) .

No doubt - good find.

I have all three in ground and a backup of each. There are a few others on the forum that have these and were successful at rooting them. They should be out there for next year. Just hoping they turn out yummy.

Good job Addison. I look forward to seeing more about this one later in the year ;) .

It's nice to think about the possibility of some great "new" figs that might still be in our neighbors own back yards..............
