... and Natalya/Natalia - 😘

Thank you, Samantha @StrangeCharmSam - Feliz Natal e Boas Festas to you and your loved ones ❤️
 
A brief summary, In about 4 hours we had 20 fig fanatic winners, one waitlisted (who will almost certainly have a package available), 5 former SouthernFigsForum members (also members here), and a few packages directly from Rocco that went out in the mail a day or so ago.

That's over 350 cuttings of unknown Portuguese heirloom cuttings that will be sent out as quickly as I can. If I don't already have your address in my files, I will message you to obtain that information.

After shoveling over 6 inches of snow and trying to manage this giveaway, first, I need to watch some football.

Thanks to all participants for not only posting but in some cases, needing to reach out to someone you might not have known before.

That is right. Time to chill on the couch.
 
Thank you so much for this. I can't wait to try some of these - there's something to be said for a heritage variety that lived in someone's yard and was enjoyed by someone you don't even know. And it will be really cool to compare results with others in all different growing conditions!

First, thank you for another fun contest! It was like a lightning round of getting to know about people fast. I also laughed at myself, because I thought this whole time one person was a woman by their user name, and he is not a she, lol.

Second, I just realized that I was allowed to win only because Mike gave up his win, and because there are duplicates of most of them except for #5,

Can I please share these to Mike from my package:

variety #1- 1 cutting
variety #2- 1 cutting
Variety #3- 1 cutting
Variety #4 -2 cuttings

Thanks 😊!
Young Jin
