I got mine from Jon (Encanto). I would be suprised if he did not have them available this year. I'll happily share cuttings of mine once they are big enough, but they are not quite there yet. __________________ Andy - Zone 6a Lat 39.9º N, Alt 5390' Westminster CO ⚘ Scion List

I have Enderub assuming it has survived our last cold spell. "Edible caprifig" I have collected pollen from it and tried to pollinate other figs to get fertile seeds, but no luck yet. __________________ Scott North Georgia Zone 7b

I've only been able to get 4 confirmed persistent caprifigs from the USDA database. They list Roeding #3, for example, as caducous. Here's the 4 DFIC 6 - P - UCR 347-1 DFIC 8 - P - UCR 228-20 Enderud DFIC 10 - P - UCR 271-1 Saleeb DFIC 126 - P - Capri Q Then there's DFIC 127 - P - Capri S which is listed as persistent in 1 survey and caducous in another. Then there are some in your list which aren't in the USDA database. __________________ Zone 6, MO Wish list: Galicia Negra, De La Reina - Pons, Genovese Nero - Rafed's, Sbayi, Souadi, Acciano, Any Rimada, Sodus Sicilian, any Bass, Pons or Axier fig, any great tasting fig.

I went through the database and here's what I found. - means not there, no obs means they don't tell whether it's persistent or caducous, P is persistent, C is Caducous. Brawley - Croisic/Gilette no obs C1 - Roeding #3 - Stanford C (DFIC 134) D3-11 - Cordelia - Enderuud P Saleeb P Milco C Maslyn C Yellow Pollinator - DFIC 118-128 - 118-128 sounds more like a UCR # oreven an LSU # than a DFIC #. Either way, it's not in the USDA database. __________________ Zone 6, MO Wish list: Galicia Negra, De La Reina - Pons, Genovese Nero - Rafed's, Sbayi, Souadi, Acciano, Any Rimada, Sodus Sicilian, any Bass, Pons or Axier fig, any great tasting fig.
