[Arid_gardener] Question from Home-Hort WWW page

[Dick Gross]

Even fruit trees have a life span, Lisa, and this fig may have reached it's 
own.

If there are any healthy branches on this one, root several cuttings in 
gallon containers and start over. Figs are quite easy to root. If you get a 
dozen started, keep the best and donate the remainder to the Arizona Rare 
Fruit Growers club.

Do you know what variety you have, Lisa?
