I'm so sorry about the fruit trees. I'd give a lot to be able to grow figs here . . .

Sorry to hear that. Yeah my grandmother didn't have much but, when I went back there to just look at her home it had been torn down dunno why it was in good shape to be a small mill house. In it's place was a pink and white metal trailer. All her beautiful flowers including the crape myrtle what was in her front yard that was so huge it was practically a tree were gone. In their place the current owners had stuck plastic plants in the ground along the perimeter

I was so un.

Your story reminds of how a lot of folks close by bought lots in the Great Smokies to "Get Closer To Nature". How do they do this is tear down all the trees and strip the land bare and drop a house in the middle of their new barren field. Get closer=Beat it off with a stick.
I can root you some cuttings of these fig trees if you want maybe even send you some peach trees if we still have any (haven't checked).

krjwaj, I can try to get a rooted piece of my fig tree for you if you like. I dont know how weather hardy it wold be for your area (I'm in southwest Ga). Just let me know. My fig tree is huge (I made 15 quarts of strawberry fig jelly).

We have plenty of figs now - 3 bush/trees. Plus many other fruit trees. All of them are organic fruits. We eat them and our pets eat them.

Thanks for the offer of cuttings, but I don't know where they would fit into our landscape.
