I believe that is the site of Maggie, 'Italian Girl', who used to post here and garden web. The site seems quite changed (fewer pictures, etc) from last year. It says she only ships cuttings in the fall, not spring or summer. You can ask of course. Quote: Sorry I will no longer ship rooted non-dormant fig plants. Only cuttings in the fall. __________________ WillsC's new fig forum: http://www.Ourfigs.com (and blueberries)

I tried to contact her through 2 different email addresses last fall and didn't get a reply, so I guess don't hold your breath. Of course I was trying to get info about buying an airlayer, but the message about the cuttings only wasn't on there at that time. I moved on to others that reply and wanted the business. __________________ Calvin Littleton,CO z5/6 Wants List: For everyone to clean-up after themselves and co-exist peacefully.

Last year, Maggie had a death in her family that took her off-line for a while, but she is still there. I have started some of her Vesuviana Bianca and can spare one, if you don't want to wait. __________________ Dale non compost mentis in Zone 6a

Yes, my Mother died very bad days, she was suffering didn't eat for 23 days and couldn't take any water for almost 2 weeks, sorry had too amany emails to reveiw and reply, only with people very very familiar with, sorry was between two countries. Bad time still very hurtful but moving forward, sorry didn't reply to you sooner, sometimes things happen, if I was able I would have helped but it was furthest from mind. ciao __________________ Maggie Maria zone 7

Thank you very much pattee. It is still very fresh, must fight every day the loss. Yes we never know what someone is going through, so never assume I don't want business or anything of the sort. I do good business and am always open to anyone even if they just have questions, I try to help them all, and if I was not able, I would at least try and get back asap, If I can't something is wrong or happened. anyone who know me knows this. ciaociao __________________ Maggie Maria zone 7
