Wanted: Emalyn's Purple

Have grafted one gal plants of Black Madeira, Preto, BFF, I-258, Maltese Beauty, and Cendrosa for trading. Also have own rooted RdB, Strawberry Verte, Malta Black, Panache, Bourjasotte Grise and probably a few more

What a surprise! I found it on a commercial nursery website.

Oops its out of stock. Maybe if lots of people put requests in they will propagate more and they will be in stock again soon.

Harvey has cuttings at Figaholics.

I can help in @ a month.

My cutting was from Harvey last season.

I highly recommend him. He will get you much nicer cuttings than I would be able to provide. I just got some last week and they are very nice.

Mike

I just got mine delivered from Harvey @ figaholics

My friend Mike Nave, who named this fig after his wife, gave the prior owners of Rolling River Nursery many things to try out.  I've ordered from this nursery in the past but not since they sold and moved to Oakland and I hope they continue to do a good job. I asked Mike about this description because he had told me he thought it was a seedling of Petite Negri and he looked back at his notes and said that the Rolling River description is incorrect.

It's a beautiful fig tree with very unique leaves like none other.  Mine is 5' tall and winterizing inside my garage.  It woke up a few days ago!  Here is a picture I just took.



cheers,

So pretty!

Dennis: Thank you for the picture. Those are pretty leaves.

Thank you to everyone who responded. I have arranged a trade.
