this one started rooted in late march. took few weeks off from growing then suddenly it's shooting up again. the camo leaves are due to more of malnutrition than FMV/FMD. but i know it has that also.

And this one also has green stems. Some I.B. have really strikingly red stems and buds. I wonder how it happens that one is green and the other is red... __________________ Especially desired figs: UCD 187-25, UCD 200-48, UCD 157-17, UCD 309-B1, Princesa, Black Madeira, high quality sugar fig that ripens Sept-Oct. Probable desired fig: Smith, St Jean, JH Adriatic, CddB, Gulbun, Pastilliere, Sucrette Rooting: Smith, CDDB--this pretty much means I have my fun tries (tho' important since they are truly desirable), and only interested for this year: Gulbun, BM, 187-25, or something wildly exotic or precious that nobody has any good reason to send me.

i got one not too long cutting from UCD this spring. i cut that in half. this is the top half that survived. for whatever reason, lot of my cuttings died this yr in 1 gal pot. more than likely due to me trying to flush out the lime with ton of water. the dead on had red stem and red leaves. they try to stay alive as much as possible. but one morning i noticed the leaf and bud dried up pretty good and the cutting itself starting to dry up. i notice on lot of my trees out back, the leaves, stems, and bud turning red when the temp cools down. __________________ Pete Durham, NC Zone 7b "don't talk to me about naval tradition.
