  • Some Interesting Varieties up for Trade!

    Hello everyone,

    I hope your cutting season is going well!


    Keep in mind that none of these have fruited for me yet, but I acquired them all from good sources:

    D'en Peregran x1: Got this one from Wills last spring. Don't know much about it other then that it's a Pons fig. If anyone has any photos of this one in Pons' book or elsewhere I'd love to see it.
    Moscatel Preto x2: Jaime being the generous person that she is.. gave me this one as a fully grown rooted cutting at the Staten Island Fig Festival. See this thread: https://www.ourfigs.com/forum/figs-h...moscatel-preto
    Cavaliere x2: Mine came to me from BrooklynMatty. Rafed & BrooklynMatty both rave about this one and give it very high reviews. This is definitely the real deal after a few confirmations on Rafed's group. A lot of pictures and info can be found there on this one.
    Blackgold & Whitegold Cherry Tree scions x2 each: I'll be willing to send these for postage to the first person asking! They're one of a few disease resistant cherry varieties. Highly recommended for areas with humid summers.
    Vasilika Mavra x2: Said to be one of the best Greek figs out there. Hasn't fruited for me yet, but I got mine from Marius last spring.






    As for what I'm looking for... See my spreadsheet in my signature. My stupidly long wishlist is at the end.

      Everything is gone, but the Moscatel Preto! Decided that I'm going to root/graft VM and Cav myself to have extras of these.

              Nice. I'm glad someone in the states has it.
