Glad everyone had a good time. We had over 30 people attending. Everyone left with new plants.

Sorry guys and gals. Took short video to place on here but my canon camera let me down.Somehow it was in the slow motion mode. I don't know how that happened.
All in all we had a great time. Wifey really enjoyed herself with the other woman at the event. Tons of fig trees and other plants to deal with. Everyone went home with a smile on their face.

The home made wine was outstanding as well as the Italian cold cuts Vito made. Lots of sweet treats as well. Thank you Bass and your wife for taking care of all our needs
for the day.
We where happy we attended.

Thanks Bass for hosting yet another great fig outing!! Thanks Ruuting for the Keylime, I sent scott home with a couple jade rooted cuts. Thanks everyone for the food and fig trees, and for accepting my cactus friends into the fig fold.

Thanks for opening your home to a bunch of us nuts today Bass. I enjoyed every second. My wife asked me "what did you guys do there?. I said "we talked about figs and had a great fig auction".
She rolled her eyes and walked away.

Thanks Bass and everyone for such a good time.

Out of all the beautiful trees I got to take home. I appreciate the Attilio Purple from Ruuting and the Dominick from Coop the most... Thank you both!! Also nycfig for your generosity and I got to take home an Italian Everbearing you brought that started at Belleclare....

Just wanted to echo everyone else here in saying what a nice time my wife and I had. Sorry we had to skip out early, I think the heat was a bit much for her (being pregnant). I am excited about the plants I received, even if I don't know much about them! Vito, any information about the Croatian fig? Anyone else have experience with GM #25?

Barry, I'm excited to try Noire de Caromb. Have you found it to be the same as Kathleen's Black?

Tim, I'd planted my Kathleen Black in ground and it was killed 2 years ago by a harsh winter so I've been unable to do a side by side comparison. I do recall others saying they were different yet of similar quality

Thank you all for coming. I purposely invited fig collectors to prove to my wife that I'm not the only crazy fig guy out there.

Bass knows about those pomegranate people Alan, he sells poms too. I picked up a new one hardy one from Bass. I'm slowly becoming a citrus nut, i collect succulents, certain types of succulents. Yeah it's a personality thing I think
