FIVE Fresh Cuttings with multiple nodes for For Propagation.LI,NY UNK ROCKYS FIG.

This is an unknown from the Belleclare Nursery.Unkown by name but not its history.Chris DiPaola had a friend named Rocky.Rocky was an old world Italian man.He would frequent Belleclare.They would chat old world living and naturally figs.The history of Rocky’s fig is as follows.Rockys family migrated to America in 1897 from Sciacca Scialy Sicily.It was Rocky’s grandfather who came to America in 1897.Along with whatever possessions he took on his journey.He also took his hometown family tree.I was given a rooted cutting of this variety by Chris DiPaola.It was in a four inch pot.Chris also gave me the history that I tell about this variety.At the time I received my plant.It was 3 generations old.It may well be over four generations old now.My original mother tree is now in the ground in my 91 year old father in laws yard.It has been there for quite a few years now.It never get wrapped anymore.It takes all Mother Nature throws it’s way.It never dies back to the ground.Some top wood dies back.I prune it back for PAPA.Then it takes off again.With a name like Rocky.Its definitely one tough tree.Its a medium to large black with a red center sweet and juicy.A popular forum member from the Carolinas has purchased this variety twice from me.He told me of all his many varieties.Rockys tree is his most productive tree.Bad seasons and all It keeps on producing.This variety roots easily.Many other collectors have told me similar nice feedback about Rocky’s tree.You will see my 93 year old father in laws Rocky’s Tree in the photos.I took the cuttings today 1/12/21 off Papas tree.The only photo I have doesn’t do this fig any justice.Your cuttings  will ship first class mail.Unless priority is requested at 10.95.
