Out of 26 varieties that I order I receive 23 varieties, all of them 3 cuttings except Pastiliere,Ischia Black and Skardu Black 1 cutting.
12 variety pomegranate and 3 variety mulberry.

Now I need to do some serious rooting. Wish me luck.

that is exciting, make sure you wash them well before get it going.. if they came with gnat eggs of something like.... there will be problems. I find that it is best to let them resting in a newspaper lined box, so I can see them clearly and if need I will wash them again, rather than burry them in moss and have to disturb them and if bugs crawl in the moss, it is more difficult to see.  I got some mulberries also, and the callous around their bottom is incredible. I pinched the flowers. One variety, Middleton is a bit slower to root.  I put them all upside down- seems to work! I wish I did not have to put them in soil, that is when I lose my  battle to stupid bugs....

you are lucky! I had a few varieties that I only received one!

Especially desired figs: UCD 187-25, UCD 200-48, UCD 157-17, UCD 309-B1, Princesa, Black Madeira, high quality sugar fig that ripens Sept-Oct.

Probable desired fig: Smith, St Jean, JH Adriatic, CddB, Gulbun, Pastilliere, Sucrette

Rooting:  Smith, CDDB--this pretty much means I have my fun tries (tho' important since they are truly desirable), and only interested for this year: Gulbun, BM, 187-25, or something wildly exotic or precious that nobody has any good reason to send me.
