I have some Brooklyn white cuttings if anyone wants to trade. It's cold hardy in NY zone 7...specifically my father's backyard in Brooklyn. He hasn't covered his tree in years since it grew to over 20 ft. Makes 2 crops of really sweet figs.
Is there anything you are looking for in particular?
Was hoping for Atreano or anything that'll do well in a container.
Wow! I'm really taking a lot of interest in these unknown varieties that I'm hearing thrive so well in the NY & NJ area. It seems the Europeans who immigrated to the area brought some real treasures with them. Any chance you have a picture of this 20' tree?I just took three cuttings from a tree I call "Fera Verde". It didn't have a name so much as "Fera" is the surname name of the guy who gave me two trees... and the figs are green. He's originally from Puglia but I have no idea where the tree is from. These are overwintered in an unheated garage in Zone 6. They're super tough. He grows them in 3 gallon buckets, using nothing but backyard soil. Please send me a PM if interested. I'll send you pictures of the cuttings I have so you know what you'd be getting.
I do have Atreano, but it is too small. I probably won't be able to take cuttings until next year.
I have Atreano, I should be able to take some cuttings. I need to look at it again to be sure. I happen to be looking for Brooklyn White.
I also have Atreano if Drew does not. What else might you want for trade?
At the moment I don't have a photo of the tree with leaves on it, I can take one but it will be dormant. I only have 5 cuttings left but I can take more when I visit Brooklyn. I'll PM you guys in the order I received messages. Thanks
Very kind I'd of you. Thanks.
Ok so all of my cuttings are spoken for. If I PM'd you then I will be shipping them this week. I'll be getting more cuttings from my Dad's tree probably around Christmas day, I'll reach out to those that were interested at that time. Thanks, CM
