I'm looking to buy, swap or pay postage for some of the lesser known LSU fig variety cuttings. The Jack Lily fig looks very tempting. Please PM me if you have it or others available for trade. Thanks Tim

I have been looking for jack lily with no luck. What I do have though is some cuttings stored in the fridge from my dads tree and all he knows is that its a LSU fig that is red outside and red inside, he bought it at a farmers market in central La. I'm hoping it is the elusive LSU red that I read about, I guess I'll have to grow it out and see.

The Jack Lily is a new one on me, never heard of it, what does it look like? My guess would be that Brian (CajunB) would know where one would be if anyone would. I do not remember seeing one at the LSU Field Day.
