Hey, does anyone have one Owensboro fig I could purchase? If so, sent me an email, not PM. My PM is full and my lazy behind haven't cleaned it out yet. I'm just seeking one gallon size. I'll pay for the tree including shipping.
Also jpeaspenan, since you were one of the few friends that sent me your address, your trees will be mailed tomorrow. I also gave you 2 surprise trees. You will receive 2 boxes. Don't worry about shipping and postage cost. Just be a good friend and be blessed! Santa is working early this year! Ho ho ho!
Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!

Dennis, I just cleaned out my PM,s starting at the last page. Amazingly, the sent ones take up the most room! Wish I had that Owensboro, but nope! Good luck! I'm sure someone will step up!! Suzi

Thanks Suzi. I had one last year but could not connect with Jason to pick it up. I'm making plans for another trip Southwest next year. This time I'll make sure not to miss another fig! You're right about the sent folder. I'm printing out mine now before I wipe everything.

Hey Dennis. Is this the same Owensboro fig that originated from me? If so, I might be able to help you out. I'll have to check though. I know I don't have a lot available of this one but may be able to help you out with a small piece. It's a really nice purple little fig by the way........

Hey Dennis, I held onto that Owensboro for a couple of months after we missed each other just in case you came back through. I ultimately gave your fig to Michael, who lives just a little north of me, but I have several feet of wood on my trees I can kick you if you're cool with cuttings. I'd be more than happy to send them with my usual M.O. - don't pay me anything, just pay it forward ;) Let me know - my trees are still fruiting, but I'm down to my last fig or two right now.

You were right Suzi! Ha! Thank you guys! @Bill -- I'm going to take Jason's offer. I know you're swamped with emails on the other cuttings request including mine. Thanks for the offer! @Jason - Ok Jason! You're on! Thanks for the generosity! And for being a good forum friend, I'm going to send you a free gift. All I will say is that its a tree from Spain. I also have an air layer for you coming in Spring.....I haven't forgotten. I'll PM you my address. If you haven't moved in the past few years, I still have yours. many thanks!!!!
