Now that the dust has settled in my little orchard and i filled the back of the truck with stumps and rootballs to take to the dump sat..Had the pleasure of organizing the remaining poted trees ,a area for spoken for trees ,a area for trees to save close, to the faucet for easy watering, a few trees for gifts . AND the following trees that escaped my rath and for the most part the clippers ! PLEASE take these of my hands before i do somthing these figs will regreat:GMD LIPARI 25 GAL.,EXCEL 25 GAL.,505-H 25 GAL.,BARTON RED 15 GAL.,EBT 15GAL.,DAVIS WILDHORSE 5 GAL.,MARANCIANA MACRI 5 GA., M.G.M. 15 GAL.,ACE OF SPADES 5 GAL.,DALLA BICE 15 GAL., SUCCRETTE (W) 5 GAL.,CALVERT 15 GAL. .12 TREES FOR $100 DONATION TO Fig Fanatic forum , local pick up .OR i will chop them al up and put in large priority box (bulk) for $250 donation to forum i pay postage .
 
EVERY THING IN GROUND ! AND I TRANSFURED ALL THE POTED TREES I LIKE TO FRANKINFIG GRAFTS , STILL TESTING A FEW TREES IN POTS ,BUT THE GOAL IS TO NOT HAVE MUCH IN POTS SO I DO NOT HAVE TO WATER ALL THE TIME ,USED TO GET $450 per month water bills and be tied to the trees to do semi daily watering . INGROUND TREES WELL ESTABLISHED NEED VERY LITTLE TO ANY WATER HERE ,BUT THEY SUCK POTS DRY AND WILT IN A FEW DAYS .
 
MY inground trees are all on drip ,but not the poted trees . for years had 100 dreeds and always moving them around so never set up drip for them .
 
Looks really good from the pictures. I can't come for a few days I'm exhausted from a long drive just the other day.
 
I 'AM SHURE THERE IS ONLY ONE BATROUN RED AND I PROBABLY SPELLED IT WRONG ,NO WORRIES ,I SPELL MOST THINGS WRONG NO UMBRAGE ON MY PART . WE NEVER GOT TO THE POTED TREES ON MY FROUNT PORCH AND THAT IS WHERE THE BATROUN RED ,GMD LIMPARI,EXCEL, ENGLISH BROWN TURKEY AND ONE OF MY 505-H WHERE .
 
BATROUN RED is a very good fig ,hence i have it on a frankin fig ,may add one more graft in next day or two .WHAT did they sell for on fig bid ?
 
$65 on figbid

$85 on trees of joy. Out of stock. I don't think these are cuttings. Probably rooted.

I give you credit that you have them as long as you did. My husband would have thrown them on the compost heap after that first utility bill. 😭

I hand watered for a long time but once I got the drip system I never looked back. So convenient. I do want to get off city water. I have loads of ground water and a sump that works regularly. These season or next I'd like to figure out where to put a reservoir so I can pump the sump water up and use that for the plants.

That’s great thinking. 5 stars for that. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. 🍺
