Fig shipment arrived today

I just received my fig plant order from Burgmansia-Quebec. The plants were shipped out Monday.

I ordered 4 plants, Black Mission, Celeste, Desert King and Violette de Bordeaux. The plants arrived in great shape and are a pretty good size.

I just moved them to bigger pots to enjoy the rest of the growing season.

I tried this new to me product called Growstone soil aerator. It is supposed to be better then perlite for adding aeration and moisture retention. It is made up from recycled glass. Anyone tried this stuff.

I still haven't figured out how to get the attached images into the post as a large picture.

They look nice.  Watching them grow is so gratifying, enjoy!

Nice looking plants. 

They seem to be one of very few sources of plants up here in Canada and I have been checking there website out to maybe purchase some figs next season. Nice to see what they are sending people. 

Good luck with your new treasures.

Nice plants, my last 2 order from May and July, Both have scale pest, Just in case, Please check your plants and clean them out.

If you want your plants with nice shape, you may want to start pruning all suckers and branches out.
