Tom,

I checked out your blog, good stuff. I'd recommend a brunswick for that gully of yours. That tree can handle rain and wet, its common in Seattle. You might want to put out your request on the fig forum, I wish I could help but I'm just starting.

Good Luck,
Little John

Thanks John, but I'm not planting them in the gully. The birds wouldn't give me a chance to eat even one. I have a sunnier spot behind the potager reserved for these two figs. I'm hoping tomorrow to get a few cuttings from a black mission locally.

Cool! I wish you all the best with rooting them! My challenge right now with rooting cuttings is getting them in a warm place in the house. If your heating with all that oak you're cutting you've got no worries.

Peace,
Little John

Hi,
I have fig cuttings fruits are deliciously sweet but do not know the name...to trade for your-
pineapple sage
NOid yellow/orange brugmansia
Ecuador White brugmansia
Passiflora "Amethyst"
PLMK if interested.
Thanks.
Jen

Thanks Jen, but I'm only looking for the White Marseilles now. I've got an unnamed fig myself, but would like to stick to known varieties.

I'm still looking for a white Marseilles. I found a black mission.

I have Conadria, Violet DE Bordeaux and I think Negronne. Also some Desert King. Looking for good early 'Breba' crop figs that can handle the cooler NW weather.
