Had the exact same thing happen to me last week. I bought a Chicago Hardy from the local greenhouse, where I'm assuming it had been since it was planted as a cutting. Planted it in a very sunny spot of my yard and let it sit for a week with good results in overcast/rainy conditions. Then the sun came and we had a small heat wave at the end of last week. After a few days in the heat and sun the leaves were burnt to a crisp. My guess is that its fine, especially since the new buds look very healthy and the tree continues to grow. I forgot all about the concept of hardening off and just planted them. I was too excited to let it sit in the shade! Oh well, lesson learned for next time. Hope your new fig recovers.

The tree you call "Italian Honey Fig" is really a Desert King. By reviewing the photos you posted, of the leaves and the shape of the figs in the basket, I have no doubt that your green fig is Desert King- a common variety that does well in the Seattle area, even in an Italian neighborhood like "Garlic Gulch"! You informed me that the inside was red so I doubt it is Gillette. The other clue that tells me it's Desert King is the information you mailed me on the number of crops it produces: "well, Leon, in Seattle, we only get 1 crop. it does have figs that could be a second crop, but nothing ever happens to them! the season here is really too short and cool for that second crop." Check out the link below. Here is a link that might be useful: Seattle Desert King and Gillette

You can use ACCESS with PHP. Usually PHP is easier and faster than ASP. In my opinion, the leaf shape is not a good filter to identify the fig variety. In the same fig tree, you can find a different shape leaves. After a heavy pruning or when the fig is young, the shape leaves are very different. In Turkey, the main fig producer are using this method developped by Uygun Aksoy : The text below is written in Catalan, lÂIPGRI en publicà la versió defi nitiva, que diferia poc de lÂesborrany original: hi afegia alguns carà cters que consideram de poc valor descriptiu (mides del borró, arrels adventícies, color de la gota de lÂull, adhesió dÂesquames ostiolars, carà cters de les lenticel·les i sensibilitats a factors abiòtics) i dÂaltres que ja ens avançà rem a afegir a la nostra proposta de descriptor (color dÂesquames ostiolars i longitud del peduncle). Aquest descriptor ha estat pensat per a Ficus carica i altres espècies del gènere, i dóna molt de protagonisme a les fi gueres del tipus dÂEsmirna, fet comprensible per a una regió que és capdavantera en la producció mundial dÂaquest tipus de fi gues seques. SÂadapta a un format normalitzat del tipus IPGRI;8 això implica una detallada descripció dÂun elevat nombre de característiques de la cultivar, estandaritzat per a feines de recuperació, conservació, divulgació i utilització de germoplasma. Per tant, completa prou els carà cters morfològics (oferint diverses opcions de resposta), nÂamplia els fi siològics i els agronòmics i, fi nalment, nÂintrodueix de químics i reserva un apartat fi nal per als marcadors bioquímics i moleculars. This is the automatic translation to English. The IPGRI published the final version, which differed little from the original draft: it added some characters that we consider of little descriptive value (sizes of the bud, adventitious roots, color of the drop of the eye, adhesion of ostiol scales, characters of the lenticel·les? and sensitivities to unbiotics factors) and other that already we advanced to add to our proposal of descriptor (color of ostiol scales and length of the stem). This descriptor has been thought for Ficus carica and other species of the genre, and it gives a lot of protagonism to the figs the type of Esmirna, understandable fact for a region that is a leader in the world-wide production of these dried figs type. It adapts itself to a normalized format of the type IPGRI;8 this implies a detailed description of a high number of characteristics of the to grow, standards for works of recovery, conservation, divulging and utilization of germoplasm. Therefore, it completes enough the morphological characters (offering several options of answer), it broadens the physiological end and the agronomic ones and, finally purpose, introduces chemists and reserves a final section for the biochemical and molecular scoreboards. Bon courage, ...

She wants an alba rose? Get Great Maiden's Blush, K�nigin von D�nemark or Felicite Parmentier Peonys are no maintenance. All you have to do is put out a peony cage in the spring and then after frost clean up foliage. And sometimes a little lime/ I don't even put up a cage. If your aunt is now in charge of your grandmother's property and doesn't want something fussy- I'd do the Bernice peony! Or FESTIVA MAXIMA, 1851, that a favorite of mine, I like the perfume. More peonies: 'Raspberry Sundae' ' Rasperberry Ice' 'Garden Parfait' 'Pink Parfait' 'Bowl of Cream' 'Candy Stripe' 'Madelon' (bred in 1922) 'Blanche King' (bred in 1922) 'Alice Harding' (bred in 1922) 'Laura Dessert' 'Suzanne Dessert' 'Candy Heart' 'Chiffon Clouds' 'Chocolate Soldier' (If she loved chocolate...this one...) 'Hot Chocolate' 'Lemon Chiffon' 'Raspberry Charm' 'Sugar 'n Spice' 'Pink Lemonade' Bleeding hearts are okay, but they die back during the summer, not that peonies are that useful during the summer either, I just like them a lot....they'll probably outlive both your aunt and yourself. Thus in a way your grandmother will live on in that house that way. All narcissus/daffodils are deer/critter resistant because they are POISONOUS. As are hyacinth and fritillary. Alliums are left alone by critters as well. Unfortunately many of the spring blooming bulbs you have to wait until autumn (you probably know this) so places that have interesting cultivars, may not have them in stock anymore....I like the white daffodil 'Thalia' Also here's a nursery that sells "chocolate" plants as in platns brown/chocolate colored or with candy/chocolate names!
