I would love to win a cutting of either! In SE Texas and have just been (really) getting into gardening. Our sweet Mom passed away a few years ago & she always talked about picking figs all Summer long at her grandparents home and how they were “just like candy”. ☺️ Your channel makes me think of her. Thanks for all you do! 🙂
I'm right up the road from you in Fayetteville, NC. I'm just starting my fig orchard and I purchased a few this season, Olympian, Chicago hardy and Celeste. They are in containers but I will plant them in the ground this spring. I would love to expand my orchard with a unique variety. Thanks for your hard work Phil for making great videos.
Love that you’re giving back to the fig community it’s amazing to watch the love and support that’s in the fig community! I’ve got my 5th tree this year can’t wait for spring lol Much love and respect from Jourdanton Tx
I would like a cutting of the White Madeira fig. I live in Cleveland, Ohio and this is my first year of propagating my own cuttings and growing figs in pots. I have 30 plants (went a little nuts) that did wonderfully for me this year, and with most in 7 gallon pots, I am scrambling to figure out their winter homes. However, I have made plans to plant at least 7 in ground next year. The White Madera would be a welcome addition to my fig fam.
I commented on my other profile but I would love to be considered for the Campinieri cuttings! I love your page and the passion you bring to growing figs!
Hello from Friendswood, Tx. I was able to attend the event down in Angleton and looking forward for next year’s. I would love to get cuttings of the Campaniere if available. Keep providing great content!
I would love to be added to your fig cutting giveaway. I appreciate you devoting your time to make informative videos about growing fig trees. Thank you!
Winners were picked, but thank you for the kind words and there will be more giveaways in the future. I will also have my fig cuttings sale up in december!
Heck yeah man really great video. Always appreciate your stuff. Sounds like my season is similar to yours - here in dallas. Add to that, that most of my trees are first year trees. I’m having all sorts of mixed confusion in what they’re doing. But I still have a bunch ripening now. I’m down to two hours of sun on them though. Hope they make it. Whatever is ripening is very yummy though. Congrats on the subscribers and the nursery. Keep on rocking brotha!
Glad to know you're still ripening figs there. Yea it's an interesting time for figs right now as they decide whethey they want to go dormant or want to push through and ripen a few more figs before winter!
@ yeah for real. And I almost feel bad. I’m probably going to take a few plants indoors to let them finish. My house is going to be like a jungle. I’ll share the results of a ripening angelito outside at this time of year vs the ones ripening inside have a night and day difference. The indoor angelito wins every time. It’s hitting brix readings of over 30 about 50% of the time. The outdoor one still taste good, but you can tell it’s fighting a battle out there. The skin is WAY harder. Normal for this time of year outside, but my indoor one isn’t doing that ;-)
I have been trying to build my collection of figs in middle GA. I would love to be considered for your Campaniere cuttings. I have been trying to find cuttings for a while! Thank you for all you do.
Greetings from Lizella, GA! Thank you for your videos and sharing your love and knowledge of figs with us. Congratulations on your new subscriber milestone! I started my fig journey about a year ago with a few Celeste cuttings, and now I am hooked; the hope is to establish an orchard and share some delicious fruit with others.
Hey Phil, I’d love to be entered into the cutting giveaway! Either of the cuttings would be fantastic to add to my collection! I have 14 different varieties in containers right now. I use your rooting strategy with coco coir/perlite and it works great for me! Thank you for your videos they’re very informative! Keep on figgin around!
Ah so great to hear! The cutting winners were selected this time but there will be more opportunities in the future and my fig sale is coming up in December!
I'd love to win some cuttings! Piedmont NC here. The fig rust got me pretty good this year. I'm like you and I have all sort of growing conditions right now. I'm trying to get them ready for winter. It's my first year growing figs and I'm trying to think the best way to protect them this winter.
It'll be interesting as here in NC generally we are safe from building any protection for our figs unless we have that 10 year cold snap that can really stress them.
@@Philsfigs I do have an unheated cattle panel greenhouse I made years ago I plan to bring them into this first year for winter. Just want to help them while the roots are young. I hope all my figs and other plants fit, it’s gonna be a squeeze….lol.
Ok so I live in Katy Texas. Depends on what chart you look at; I am in zone 9 or 9a. Should I get one of your trees now or wait a couple of months? If now, do you have the species I should be growing?
Hey Phil, I am in 8b also Central Alabama. New to figs. I have a Brown Turkey in the ground and one in a pot , LSU in the ground and in a pot, and a Fignominal. What would you recommend me trying that I can grow in a container. I the turkey and LSU in pots I grew from my cuttings. I would be interested in the cuttings.
Hardy chicago or any mt etna type figs will grow great for you and if you're growing them in containers you can certainly grow any type of fig variety you would like!
I am in central Alabama so hot, humid summers. What do you suggest for watering. I had a very difficult time this year keep my pots from going hydrophobic. I am planning for hook up a drip line for this next season. I have considered a drip pan but was concerned about the roots being to wet. Any guidance would be appreciated:)
@@barbaraannewer6320 Hey Barbara for your location you're still going to want to water every day in June and July for your potted figs. Then as the fig season begins and you start to ripen your figs you can do it a little less often (as the heat burns off some too) to every other day or more. Keeping watering consistent will be helpful for the figs to manage water uptake as well!

Thank you so much! There is such fun loving history in figs even amongst our families, thanks for sharing!
Keep up the good work with the videos. Fig addiction is real and adding the 2 varieties will surely curb that until spring. 😂
Thank you! haha yes it's very real and worth it!

Met you at the Figtoberfest in Angleton and really enjoyed the event. Can't wait for the next one. Hopefully I can win one of those cuttings.
Such a pleasure meeting you and everyone at Figtoberfest. I will pick a winner tomorrow!
I would love to be considered for the cutting giveaway. I’m not far from Wilmington…in Liberty, NC.
I would definitely like to add those varieties to my collection

Sarasota Florida fig trees took a beating in hurricane Milton . But looking forward to next year
It’s that time of year
100%
OK zone 7a had one frost that knocked off most the leaves, but the warmer weather after is making them grow again.
Oh wow yep that can happen from time to time! Figs are resilient!
Texas. By the river
Wonder who is going to get some cuttings😊
Ok so I live in Katy Texas. Depends on what chart you look at; I am in zone 9 or 9a. Should I get one of your trees now or wait a couple of months? If now, do you have the species I should be growing?
Hey now is a great time to plant on in the ground but I'll have a lot of varieties become available this spring (April/May)
