There's a person on Figs4Fun that is selling sticks of Sal's Fig
(Edible Landscaping cultivar) for $5 for 3 sticks....  I just got a
bunch of them & may have some extras in the spring.

& what Richard says about naming chaos is entirely true.  I have
several different trees named Hardy Chicago whose figs look very
different from each other, plus I have one that was named Old Chicago
which I assume is also Hardy Chicago.
