I am a few hours away, but if you come way down here. I can give you pretty much as MANY pups as you would like.

Ditto if you make it to Tampa.

If you're still looking, someone is selling bananas on the Lake City CL; they're in Ft. White. They don't mention varieties but say they are rare and grow in North Florida. $5 is the price mentioned. I scan ads all the time; I even sent a friend of mine down to a "Friday only you dig" event a few weeks ago in Palm Bay. Ostensibly he dug for me but he's keeping them so that's the end of a nearly 7 year relationship. (Reminds me of my old fig cuttings wars...brutal! ;) )

Hey Kat - sorry you missed the nana meet in P'cola - you mention fig cuttings above - what brand of figs do you have - I have celeste and Brown turkey - trying to get some green cuttings taken from LSU orchard on fig day to grow but not much luck - only Holliers has taken. Hope to return to LSU during dormant season Jan/Feb.

Hope to return to LSU during dormant season Jan/Feb.Lost all of mine in a bitter divorce and the aftermath. I had 34 varieties--many unnamed. Shame. I was always partial to those that produce breba and fall crops; BT does not and I don't think Celeste does either. (Had both.)

If you really like eating figs (which I don't--just loved propagating them) then you need to verify that new varieties "double crop". Essentially that means nearly a continuous harvest from early summer through fall.

I'm sorry I missed the meat...er...meet also. You all should be glad I did--I'm one of those kinda skinny people buffet owners think they'll make a killing on. Ha! When I'm "charged" up, I make those guys who swallow a bazillion hot dogs in 2 minutes flat look like amateurs. ;)
