Just wanted to make these available in case some of you might be interested. I have several varieties that I'd like to sell cuttings of for $3 a piece. There are just a couple of exceptions at $4 each due to rarity or demand. Some of these are very limited in quantity. In fact, with a variety or two I may only have 3 or 4 cuttings. These are mostly clippingS from some of my own trees . LIST HAS BEEN MODIFIED AS OF 1/28/15. Here's the list. In no special order. All are $3 ea: - Blue Celeste - Beall - Hardy Chicago - Troiano Calabrese Please email your request only at this email: wildfruitnut@gmail.com I will probably get bombarded with requests for these and will likely run out of most in the first few requests. For this reason I may also not be able to answer many questions you might have. But I'll try. Also, please send me your mailing info as early as possible to help expedite the whole process. I hope you all are able to make some nice trees of your own out of some of these cuttings. "VICTORIBUS SPOLIA" ;~) Thank you. __________________ Fig Well And Prosper! Bill - SW KY.

Bill, did the GM#25 ever produce figs that matured? What has been your experience with Scott's Yellow? Mike in Hanover, VA __________________ Zone-7, previously Mescalito

Thanks for all the positive comments. I have about 30 new emails to reply to now. I'll go through them and get back to everyone in order as quickly as possible. @ Mike. I did get some near fully developed fruit on the GM #25. The fruit came on and held on just fine but they took too long to ripen and they eventually fell (still green) due to the frost. So, it looks like it's going to be a late variety. I'm hoping that, as the tree matures, the fruit will begin to develop earlier. BTW, that was in 2013. It grew a lot but didn't put on any fruit in 2014. Only time will tell on this one. So, for anyone who gets this one, you will be experimenting along with me. I'm keeping my hopes up for this year. The Scott's Yellow has only given me one small fruit so far on the young tree. It really wasn't much to offer any evaluation on the fruit character. __________________ Fig Well And Prosper!

Hi Jeri. I'm just trying to keep all the messages I'm receiving in one place. Please send me an email, if you haven't done so already. Also, I will be doing an update soon. I think most varieties are spoken for at this point. __________________ Fig Well And Prosper! Bill - SW KY. Zone 6b. 36.5N I'm fruitnut on ebay.

Bill, Have you had a chance to reply to the potential takers yet? Does it mean no email from you - no cuttings? __________________ wish list: Violeta, Calderona. USDA z 10a, SoCal

Hey Greenfig. No reply yet doesn't necessarily mean no cuttings just yet. However I am out of GM #25, Scott's Yellow, and Strawberry Verte. Updating post #1 to reflect that. __________________ Fig Well And Prosper! Bill - SW KY. Zone 6b. 36.5N I'm fruitnut on ebay.

Vinny. That fig looks like it could be Salce (sal-chay), but it's hard to say for sure without knowing more about where & who it's coming from. Even then, no guarantee. I've also made another update to the list to reflect some others I just ran out of. __________________ Fig Well And Prosper! Bill - SW KY. Zone 6b. 36.5N I'm fruitnut on ebay.

Hi Vinny, Do you have picture of the leaves of the variety in the plate? if it's varigated leaves, it could be Clown Fig (I dunno...)
