How about "Syrian Bass Delight"

Maybe it's about time to name a fig after you..

Twilight

OK!  Giving in with one submission.

Fire & Ice!

My vote is on Merlot Sunset . Because the wife  just bought my daughter-in-law a 'Sunset Merlot' dinnerware set . I thought the name fit the design of the dinnerware to a T. Just switch the words and Voila' Bass's new fig variety . 

Its almost time to vote BASS!!!!!!!!! friday is almost here :) cant wait to see who wins.The Suspense is killing me LOL. Good luck everyone theres some good ones listed here.

I hate to break it to people who are still submitting new names, but Bass did not wait till the end of the week - voting is already going on. :)

Bass,

Great contest.  I’ll play.

Bass  Brown Allentown Fig   

I would use what has been done before:  1. Name of the person who brought it to the attention of the forum.  2. The skin color and 3. The location of where it was found.

May be too late.  Just reading through the names.  Fun!

Just saw that I am too late with a name.  Of the five listed, I would go with Merlot Sunset.  There may be a future on Madison Avenue for some people on this forum.  Great names!

Sunfire!  Me, I grow wine grapes AKA vinefera, and nobody should steal the name of a vinefera for a ficus carica.  Should not happen.  Scratch Merlot!!  It's FRENCH!  Not Mediterranean!

Oh well i lost

Vote for Twilight. ^^,V

So the best name that matches this fig is Sunfire. Twilight won favorites names as well. So Jon and Slingha both win some cuttings.
Contact me with your info I will mail the cuttings next week.

That was a fun contest Bass.  Thanks for running it!  (And for finding it and acting before the tree was gone too).  Thanks for the fun.

Congrats to the winners.

Boo! I didn't win? Man.... well, better luck next time. Congratulations :-)

Congrats to the winners !!

Congrats to the winners.
Thanks to Bass.

Bass, great gesture and also fun. Makes this forum even better.

Happy for the nice winning Sunfire name I voted for....

That was fun. I was torn between Sunfire and Merlot Sunset. It's Merlot on the outside and Sunfire on the inside. Congrats to the winners.

Zorba!

I received my sunfire cuttings today. 3 went into a bag surrounded by sphagnum into a dark spot and 2 of the more lignified pieces went into cups with a perlite/vermiculite/spagnum blend. Put a bag on top of each to simulate a greenhouse. Fingers crossed!

Congratulations to Jon and Tim, nice names guys!

Jon & Slingha - please keep us updated on the propagation process.  I'm interested to see how this story ends.  No pressure now since the Sunfire mother tree is gone : ).  I just joined this forum a couple of weeks ago but think it's great how much you all help to keep the fig trees growing.

Any updates on Sunfire?
