Default Re: Who's growing figs ?

I stuck some unknown fig sticks in a pot; not sure if they'll root and they're probably one of the trash Southern ones. I rescued some from a mass of "stuff to sell" that were my best that I sent down here in 2007; they survived. Need to get clippings from them I suspect. Blackie is one of them as is #2 (a lovely green perhaps from Smith Island --very rare--never knew but it was palatable) and a nice Italian brown. All set brebas and produce very well. Rusty as I am at propagating, I'll clip a few tops if my recipient doesn't water them well which so far she hasn't. (They're potted and in shade and not being hydrated--idiot)
