This kind of thread has been providing Forum members a single venue for listing their wish-list of most desirable cuttings (or plants) for the coming fall and winter season. Many people have been listing their wish-list under their signature but this thread provides you a single place/thread to find out ‘who is seeking what’ in case you might have available for trade and initiate a trade opportunity by contacting the poster of the wish-list ( by PM or email) informing him that you can provide in trade cuttings (or plant) of a variety in his wish-list if he has something available from your wish-list in trade /exchange  (or for the cost of shipping and handling if that is preferred).

Examples can be seen by newcomers in the previous year wish-list thread at http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/annual-wishlist-of-6-most-desirable-cuttings-for-201516-7606573?pid=1288725605

To make the thread efficient, it is advisable to:
(i)...limit your list to only the 6 most desirable cuttings on your wish-list for the year 2016-17.
(ii)..have only one post per member with the actual wish-list, keeping it updated in order to keep your post valid (with short comments like... promised / received / not needed anymore etc) as the case may be.
(iii).. Trade related negotiation should preferably be done through PMs or email outside the thread.

 Good luck with your Wish-List.

Here is my wish-list of six:
1- De La Reina        
2- Sbay
3- Vasilika Mavra
4- Black Ischia       (rooted plant died past winter)
5- Galicia Negra
6- Any good one that does not need root-pruning and can defend itself against raccoons

          If you have any of the above for trade, let me know what you are looking for in exchange in case I have it (… reasonable probability). I will have cuttings in the fall for trade/exchange.

I am looking for

      Name   ( priority)
1). Gramthans Royal  ( high)
2).  Lampeira        ( High)
3). Any heavy breba tree (high)
4). Vashon Violet      (Low)
5). Ronde De Bordeaux  (Low) ( Filled)
not sure what I have for trading, may be small fee.

My fig tree need pruning at fall, it is locally common unknown Italian variety, small breba and heavy main crop,  good for hotter summer area than our cool (22C/74F) summer climate , I should have some cuttings later, Free to Canada ( Just PM me your address). sorry - no international due to Customs and cost problem.
 
 






              

My wish list for this year
1 ponte tresa.
2. Figo preto.
3 panache. MADE TRADE
4 col de blank noir
5 black maderia MADE TRADE
6 green fig from maderia.

Akram, the 6th one on your list, would be a very hard-to-find fig :)

Navid.

Ottowan, your #6 would be a very interesting looking fig tree...lol

Below is my wish list. I have been blessed by some generous members here in the past and although I am always happy to receive a generous gift, I really enjoy this list because it gives me the opportunity to bless some new member with a few cuts from my humble collection.

Thanks for posting this!

MY WISH LIST:
Sweet Joy
Lamperia Preta
Ponte Tresa
St. Jean
Italian 398
Black Ischia

Akram,

I have #6 for you.

I taped a couple figs to the wife.

I'm sure she'll crop something, lol.

Already sent, no returns.

    Thanks, Mike

Mike
So you have #6 in my wish-list then probably you might have grown it in 300-gallon pot with a tight cage around it. Good idea for no root-pruning requirement and defence against raccoons. Thanks.

I'm just starting out here in Zone 5, so most anything would be appreciated at this point.
But if I have to list six, here is my list, in no particular order: 

Dalmatie (promised, Thank You!)
Malta Black
Celeste Improved
Hunt Fig
Florea (promised, Thank You!)
Dark Portuguese

Cheers!

The first three below is to verify that they are the same/ similar as Black Madeira in my location. There are others who are in the process of confirming the answer in their local condition, at least two that I am aware of. I was lucky enough to purchase a small Black Madeira from Trees of Joy, but no luck with the first 3 yet. They are very slow growers for the most part so getting any early is preferred, according to what I read.

I read somewhere that GM 172 is suppose to taste like Black Madeira and I-395 is supposedly better tasting than I-258, which is suppose to taste like Black Madeira. And so goes the theme. And lastly, USDA Black Ischia ranks up there as well, when it produces figs and doesn't die. I figure if going after regular Ischia was so frustrating, I might as well go for the rare and extremely difficult so hopefully it would lead to a reverse case. Good luck to all of us!

Out there, very close to zero chance wishlist:
1. Violeta
2. Portugal Black Madeira
3. Figo Preto
4. GM 172
5. I-395
6. USDA Black Ischia

Thanks Alan for making my personal acquisition list longer by two. : ) Edit: I have started a new thread based on this idea of figs that taste like Black Madeira or better. The link is below. https://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/figs-that-taste-like-black-madeira-8202599?pid=1293049275#post1293049275

Wow has a whole year gone by already?? Geez time flies when your obsessively collecting fig trees lol! Let's see, this is a tough one.. my top most wanted six varieties for the upcoming year would have to be: 1) Andreas' PAS (It just looks sooo amazing!) 2) Sweet Joy (found thanks!) 3) Rigato del Salento 4) Black Tuscan 5) LSU Jack Lily (in progress thanks!) 6) LSU Red (in progress thanks!) I've actually got a decent number of nice varieties this year to offer trade on.. I'm in the US though so unfortunately that limits me in my ability to trade with forum members outside of the states.. Pm me if you'd like to do some trading, I also have plenty of A/L's going for anyone interested in trading already rooted trees, or for cuttings on the above list.. I'd love to hear from yas! PS my varieties are listed in the google spreadsheet link below ;)

I'm slowing down this year and limiting myself to only 3 varieties.

Sal's (Gene or EL) - many feet of cuttings available!
Hardy Chicago - many feet of cuttings available!
Bryant Dark
MBvs
Salem White - many feet of cuttings available!

These three following seem to need the wasp as the figs have all dropped 2 years running (although I have gotten a couple late figs on the PdB this season, they have not been completely developed and poor taste - some reports are that there are various strains, this is from UCD and appears to require wasp) . I am chopping up my plants and sending out the parts to people in wasp land :
Sultani (from Aaron)
Corragio (from Jon Verdick / Encanto Farms)
Pied de Boeuf (from UCD)

These I will have in more limited quantity:
Adriatic (JH)
LSU Gold or Purple
Atreano
Black Triana
Brooklyn Dark

I have a number of other plants but most I would only consider a single cutting or two, will post about those later or respond to requests for them in this thread.

Fracazzano Multicolore

Markopoulo
Martinenca Rimada
peloponnisiaka aspra sika

if anyone has any of theses they can share cuttings of please message me and I'll be happy to give you my fig list.

Daniel
I thought I have heard all the fig varieties names by now !!!?!!

lol I'm pretty much content on figs but there are about 12 more total I'd like to find counting these 6. I know you remember Livano & Markopoulo from some of the older threads. I still check out the form from time to time even though I don't post much anymore. Colonel Littman's Black Cross looks promising, another fig friend shared a few photos of it and said it was a great fig but these are still my top picks.

My wish list for this year is
Lebanese Red
Longue d' Aout
Maltese Falcon
RdB
Strawberry Verte

I will be THRILLED if I get even just one of the following-

MBvs Marseilles Black VS
Ronde de Bordeaux
Col de Dame Blanc
Black Madeira
Barnisotte

I'm in 9B in Northern CA with a long, hot summer. I promise to completely spoil and dote on any fig you send. I am new-ish with only 5 small trees, but I will definitely offer air layers here once my babies are big enough. I feel so honored to be part of this fig community & I cannot wait to be a productive member of this fig society by helping other newbies out.

I will happily pay for cuttings or air layers or plants and/or shipping.

I can also pick up in Northern CA if within 45 minutes or so of Chico, Sacramento, Grass Valley or anywhere in-between these cities.

Thank you so much for considering me for your fig donations.
