looking for rooted figs

I lost two of my three fig trees over the winter , well one to the winter and the other to the weedeater. LOL!!!

I am looking for rooted cuttings of any fig trees other than Brown Turkey for SASE

Sharon

Sharon I can do cuttings of LSU Purple and LSU Gold figs but don't have time to root them for the RU.

Jeri

That would be great Jeri!!

I can get them to root, I think!! I never heard of those two , going to go look them up now.I have some small rooted Methley plum trees, if you want one?

Thanks Bunches, Sharon

Here is all I could find on the figs:







LSU GOLD LSU release with great resistance to splitting. Fast grower and heavy producer of large, light yellow, very sweet figs. Ripens July-August. Zones 8B-10. $26.99 3 gal (2-3ft).










LSU PURPLE Another great LSU fig, small to medium with purple to burgundy fruit. Good vegetative growth for a bushy, well-formed fig bush. Zones 8B-10. $26.99 3 gal (2-3ft).

Looks like you'll have to bring them in Sharon. They are hardy to zone 8B. LMK if you still want some!!!

Jeri

Yes, I will give them a try!! They sound great !

they may suffer some die back as young ones often do around here but I'll try them in the greenhouse for a year or so before I stick them in the ground. Thanks,

Sharon

I'll bring you both!!!

I did do some more research and the purple is hardy to zone 7B. So it's looking better for survival in your area outside.
