Steve;
Which Paradiso do you have?

The Gallesio Paradiso like Gene's or the Real Eyetalian Paradiso that Maggie has?

Now Martin-Unknown should have been 2 cuttings for $5 because just looking at that beautiful big black fig should cost something extra when it is ripe and where it ripens.
Just kidding... but I was able to root one cutting of it despite the fungus gnats problems last year. It is a 1.5 ft whip now. Thanks Martin.

I agree that those big beautiful figs are worth the extra $ but I have a a lot of wood from those trees. The prices reflect how much I have available. Good to hear from you Ottawan.

I mailed some pencil thickness cuttings in US and the cheapest postage was $9 for 3 cuttings via priority mail.

Hi Paully,

You can use USPS Flat Rate boxes/envelopes for about $5.00

Steve, I did ask about it today and was told not always the case. Probably the sweet girl doesn't know. Would try again the next time. Thanks for the info.

I just received a package of cuttings that were mailed in a bubble mailer envelope which measured 10.25" by 14.5". There were about 8 to 10 cuttings about the length of the envelope and the postage was only $2.24. I also received some in a postal service box used to mail CD's or VHS tapes. The box contained about 8 cuttings and the postage was only $2.58. Cuttings don't have to go via priority as long as they are wrapped in moist paper and seal in a baggie of some sorts.

The small USPS box is $4.95, and cuttings fit well in it, but it is limited to 1# for the price.
