Hi, I'm searching for Agnes rugosa rose and other white and yellow rugosa rose cuttings/suckers. I'd be happy to pay for some quality roses! Thanks, Marlene

One I'm really looking for in a trade is called Neverella. Have heard it does very well in our almost warm weather. Would gladly swap for any of mine on the list above Here is a link that might be useful: Fig illustrations including Neverella

I have brown turkey do you have anything to trade?

You should find out what variety the fig tree is, it is nice to know what type of fig to expect. Also you will have to learn about pruning, root pruning, bringing the potted tree into an unheated shelter for the winter so it won't freeze. You can look up previous threads on these topics on this website. If it is a hardy variety like Hardy Chicago, it can be planted outdoors with winter protection even in zone 5, but you may want to wait until it is a few years old to do this when the tree is stronger. I have potted fig trees in zone 5 and bring them into an unheated basement for the winter. Fig trees need 'chilling hours' and need to be cold but not freezing for awhile during the winter, and they should lose their leaves since they are decidious. When it looses it leaves in late fall, it doesn't mean it has died, only going dormant, and should grow new leaves in the spring. Good luck with you new tree! Terry
