Those are 3 beautiful plants, Frank. You're a lucky guy! What's the story with D'en Roig Manyo?

All I know is that it is from Catalonia. Figs are already forming, so we should know later this year.

Frank,

Those are nice plants. Glad they are doing well.
Too bad on the Norella didn't make it.

I just got some cuttings from my source recently but were sent to another friend. The cuttings didn't look so good.

I have two small plants from last year and I promised the other friend if the cuttings don't take I would send him one if the plants start going.

If mine takes then you are on top of the list for it.

Gene,

You got me red handed. What can I say?;)
