Hi, I have about 8 or more brown turkey fig bushes where the limbs of the main fig tree have touched the ground and rooted over the last 5 years or more. These are nice size plants. Would love to trade them for citrus, or other fruit plants, or perennials.
Make offer.
Thanks

Id love a fig but about the only thing I have in abundance are vegetable seeds. Are you interested in seeds and postage at all? Ill have raspberry plants this summer, but I dont know the variety name (it s a sweet red that has started bearing a second crop despite being in a great sun location but only getting some occasional compost and fish emulsion as food)

Dear garnetmoth,

Thank you for your note. I have lots of veggie seeds, but I appreciate the offer. I have posted the figs on garden web also, but if trading doesn't take all the figs, I will let you know.

I love red raspberries and have had them growing before, but they took over my garden. Not sure I want to give them another chance.

How about cuttings of citrus. Got any?

So, how have you traded off your figs? have any more? I have a few extra FD seedlings, and might have an extra Yuzu or Kaffir lime, im going to let my seedlings get a bit bigger and figure out which ones I want to keep

Dear Garnetmoth,

I would love to trade for each of those items. I still have quite a few figs and more I could dig up, but have traded off maybe 15. I was just going to list them again. How many would you like?

YAY! well, its up to you really. I have at least 2 FDs for you, and I dont think the yuzu/ kaffir seedlings will be big enough to ship safely till the fall, theyve just got 2-5 true leaves and are a bit fragile still. FDs for one fig now and then reconvene in the fall? PLMK. Take Care!

Hi Garnetmoth,
That was a quick reply. Drop me a note to my e-mail address:
jeanss@direcway.com and let me know how many figs you want. I will go ahead and ship them to you and you can send me a yuzu and Kaffir in the fall. Sound OK?

Send your address to my e-mail, and I will send you mine.

Thanks!
Jean

WOW! you werent kidding! these are gorgeous! thanks!
Ill send the FDs this friday, theyre tough and havent minded being outside (most of them) this winter, and the kaffir in the fall! Thanks so much!
