Very cool. I'd appreciate you posting this in the propagation section when you get the time.

Can we just move it there? That would be fine.
Figless said:@"Shaft"#118 . Do you still have the pictures from last spring's post. The ones from the old house (OF). They were so wonderful. Any chance of posting some of them? I love those spring pictures....
I've posted all the photos I have. If you link me to the post with the photos you have in mind I'm happy to post them though.

I am in New Jersey 7B zone and have placed cuttings directly into the ground like my Italian grandfather used to do. 95% of them root and get leaf growth. A few years ago I had stuck over 100 various fig cuttings in the soil. At the end of the season they were dug up and potted and went to sleep in our unheated but attached garage. This was 4 years ago. They are all growing today in their 2nd pots and this next season need to be up-potted to 5 gallon pots. There has been fruit on them the past few years.
Do you bury them horizontally or vertically? I've heard of people doing both but the horizontal one makes the most sense to me.
All good. Will sort it all out tomorrow.
