I am still willing to provide them with the real Ice Cream.
I'll take a pup if I ever get settled; doubt I'll eat the fruit (based on your opinion) but I'll trade pups with someone stupid for something tasty

The prosecutor is the big customer; as I said, if you don't know what variety you're offering, just label it "banana". Most people don't care--they just want a banana "tree". Heck, they'll blame themselves if it doesn't produce edible fruits so they won't complain. (They tossed the receipt and such the day they purchased her.)

I see figs both labeled and not; I know that game. I'm anxiously awaiting taking cuttings from 3 of my best figs that I sent as twigs here in 2008; I rescued, repotted and placed them in a sunnier area where they finally are leafing out and growing. (She had them in total shade; they have never bloomed.) Varieties? Don't care. Superb black, green and brown with breba crops. I started BT from her clipping so will get one of those. And starts from a Black Mission and 2 other "tagged ones" she purchased from Lowes which are probably actually mysteries. IDing figs is not easy. Panache? Yes. Others? No.
