Looks like a tomato plant growing in the middle, can you post a photo of some leaves?

Very nice looking pic John, thank you.  Does it have Bronx Flavor?  (sorry, I enjoyed that show just a little too much...I think of it whenever I hear Bronx)

:) Well in that case I feel the need to tell you that I can see a crossing branch that should be removed....if you send it to Maine I can take care of it from there for you!!!

Hey Tyler, glad to hear that the cuttings grew for you and that you have a couple of figs on your tree....they were delicious,rich honey flavor with a figgy berry taste.
