    I have recently developed a passion for figs. I understand that
    Osborne Prolific (Neveralla) is one of only a few varieties that will yield a
    second (September) crop in our mild Vancouver summers. It is a large fig with
    bronze skin colour and amber-white interior. In my searches of
    Vancouver nurseries and back-yard gardens I have yet to come across
    this variety.

    I would be very grateful to anyone in the Vancouver area who might be
    willing to surrender a cutting/sucker of the said fig. I have rooted cuttings of many
    varieties (King, Lattarula, Brunswick, several Brown Turkey varieties, Black Kalamata
    etc) and would be happy to trade. I am also interested in finding two
    other varieties: Stella and White russian (with September crop, green
    skin and red flesh).

    Thanks!
