I sent my order in sometimes in September (old system). I got an email with order confirmation on Dec 6, 2012. I hope my order will be here any day now.

I'll add my two cents. Put my order in prior to the new system, and did get a confirmation. But, they may be shipping in waves, so we shall see! Already working on next year's order, and I'll use the new system with a change of address in the Fed Ex system. I'm with Harvey on this one. I have never received any shipment from them this early. Mostly in late March or early April. Fear not, all ye who have not received! Thee shall! Be patient!~ :-)) Suzi __________________ Zone 9b, Southern California.

It's all here, and I try to beat the dates by getting my order in by May. A lot to look through! I think for 2014 you must order by end of Nov. I always order earlier.

My cuttings arrived today just as expected. I was pleasantly surprised that I received all six of the varieties that I requested including Ischia Black and Black Madeira.

Mike, I assume one of those which they gave you only one cutting of is Black Madeira. Which is the other? Note: I've mistakenly taken the shortcut of using their tags for the label for one of the cuttings. The ink did not last very long. :( __________________ Harvey - Correia Farms Isleton, CA (Sacramento County) USDA zone 9b, Sunset zone 14 http://www.figaholics.com https://www.facebook.com/Figaholics

Harvey, I made the same mistake especially on all the grape varieties I ordered a few years ago...Oh well. They are all wine varieties from Spain, Portugal and Italy so I'm mix them up and see what happens. ;-) I did manage to figure out the figs as I didn't order many and they were so different, easy to fix.

For once, I didn't wait until the last minute to get my order in. I put mine in on 11.07.2012. I didn't know they changed the cut off date to 11.01.2012 until a week later. Actually, I am more bummed about the pomegranate and mulberry cuttings than the fig cuttings. I'm not dissing the figs, rather I have enough to keep me busy thanks to the generosity of other forum members. __________________ In containers - Littleton, CO (zone 5b) In ground - N.E of Austin, TX (zone 8b) 2016 Wish List: Dārk Pōrtuguese, Grānthāms Royāl, Lātarolla, Negrettā, Nōire de Bārbentāne, Rockāway Green, Viōlet Sepōr, Viōlette Dāuphine.
