That's a lot, Richard. You going to grow them out a bit?

We've just about got them all potted -- about 100 to finish tomorrow. They are in 5-gallon and 15-gallon pots, depending on the root ball size. This is my second shipment -- a few weeks ago I received 230 figs, pomegranates, and blueberries. I'm also expecting a shipment of about 200 "late dormancy" trees in January. Some of the varieties will sell out this year and I'll have to re-order, others will take longer to sell.

Did you get any dwarf figs?

There is no such thing. There are fig cultivars that are smaller in stature than others, and of these some are suitable for 20 to 30 gallon containers. Here's some more information: Figs for San Diego Climates (http://www.plantsthatproduce.com/column/PTP_2009_09_Figs.htm)

Would you ship to new england in the winter?

I am not stocking any figs suitable for New England. I currently have inventory of: Black Mission, Excel, Janice-Kadota Seedless, Panache Tiger, and Violette de Bordeaux.
