Greetings fig enthusiasts! I posted this week about the simple rooting method which I use. Well I had a few cuttings die so some of them I removed and reused the pots but some of them I just sat aside and forgot about. Well I was just moving those pots and I pulled up a dead cutting that was completely dead but had a baby offshoot that had some roots on it! When I say the cutting was dead it is completely brittle and rotted but yet a baby fig shoot? Wow! Then I moved a couple more pots to find that they were anchored to the ground with long roots. These were also dead fig cuttings, I mean they are rotted and everything yet somehow these figs still produced tiny shoots beneath the soil and roots. Also keep in mind that these pots have all frozen a few times outside unprotected yet THEY LIVE! Just thought some of you would appreciate this story.
