I live in the Memphis TN area. I enjoy eating and growing figs. I’m a relatively new fig grower starting last year. I have a couple acres that I’ve planted a small orchard on, figs, plums, mulberries and a few other things.

I want to introduce you to my friend Ben he lives in your area. You guys could trade cuttings irl, he's got a great collection and knows other legendary gardeners in your area

What varieties you got? I'm interested in plums and mulberry and other things too, maybe we could trade some things as well

We grow Prime Ark 45. I've seen the Traveler. What is it like? Are you growing your varieties in different rows or altogether? We also grow Ouachita and Arapaho, but the drip system is not up to par in that area, so they are not growing as vigorously as the Prime Ark.
