I didn't see Fruits, or Trees, or another appropriate forum for this, so thought I'd share it here.

I'm not the most accomplished propagator of fig trees and consider myself pretty lucky to have recently managed these two. This is Jolly Tiger, a very rare variegated form of edible fig (and quite tasty) that I picked up from Asiatica just before it shut down. The last one of these I saw for sale went for an astronomical sum, so I don't know what would be a fair and proper use for these 18" rooted cuttings, but it's nice to have insurance in case something happens to the main tree, anyway.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.
