I'm thinking about my wish list for Fall/Winter cuttings but I'm getting lost in the abbreviations of certain figs especially numbered figs. Perhaps some of you could help me fill in the blanks. UCD = University California Davis UCR = University California Riverside ARM = ? GIHVO = ? AZN = ? KAC = ? LSU = Lousiana State University NSA = ? I = Italian GM = ? There may be more, but that's a good start. Anyone have experience w the numbered figs in pots? I'm in NJ z6a. (Pots kept in barely heated greenhouse for the winter.)

The NSA is the govt agency storing all your phone data, texts, emails, etc. I have no idea what any of the rest are, though GM often refers to Genetically Modified... :-) __________________ Phil - Zone 7A - Newark, DE Newbie fig lover just trying to learn.

NSA, as in NSA Green no.1 stands for New Stone Age Farms. GM = F4FF "gorgi" GIHVO = Georgia Institute of Horticulture, Viticulture & Oenology See USDA ARM = Armenia. See USDA AZN = Azerbaijan See USDA KAC = Kearny Ag Center, Parlier, CA __________________ Encanto Farms Nursery http://encantofarms.com http://figs4fun.com http://webebananas.com "pitangadiego" everywhere
