Jon. If you just pile them into a big box and ship them to me I promise I will distribute them to everyone fairly.

He just didn't want to say he's decided not to put anything up for sale this year and is moving to SC with the cuttings to start a new orchard....

Maybe he bumped his head and needs help. Has anyone tried knocking on his door? I'm very concerned.

With the arctic blast I was told he had to resort to using the cuttings as firewood.

Are there figs in Bermuda? I don't recall seeing them when I was there...for my honeymoon in 1983. Nevermind.

I have made 17 trips to Bermuda. Most were for two months at a time. The U S Navy had an Air Station there which is now closed. I don't believe there is a road there I haven't travaled. Ran the wheels off of a couple of mopeds. I have always been interested in growing fruit but years ago I was not interested in figs and don't remember any. Bermuda has nice weather most of the time but it does get into the 40's during the winter. Figs would have a hard time going dormant. But my guess would be figs are there as they seem to be most places.

What about Adelaide, Australia. Long hot summers, no rain to ruin the fruit. Also winters are mild..plenty of land, definitely new place for F4F orchard. Only if we can smuggle the cuttings LOL..

How's it looking, Jon? Not too good since his makeup was not applied and he misplaced his toupee.
