Janie, you misunderstand. I figured on sending you actual plants.

And it's no trouble at all. Funny thing about seed starting and care of seedlings. It's the same amount of work whether you do a couple or a whole flat of them.

So, if you want the plants, you're welcome to them.

Yeah, Kev, figs and bleu are great. But I like blue-cheese-stuffed dates even better. And the season for fresh dates is right now. We had a plateful of stuffed Majools just the other night. Ummmmmmm, good!

I would love a few plants.
Thanks a bunch.

Nice to see you here Brook! I LOVE fresh figs. I like to cut them in half sprinkle them with some raw sugar and then broil them until they have that crunch crème brulee top. Then I put them on a plate with some ricotta. It’s a delicious late summer dessert.

Figs Brulee! Absolutely delicious.

I knap them with marscapone instead of ricotta, but otherwise it's allee-samee.

Sometime try substituting figs for prunes in recipes that call for them. A subtle, but nonetheless identifyable, difference.
