Description: A very popular pass-around fig on the East Coast, Brooklyn White is reportedly one of the hardiest and most reliable figs for growers in cold climates. Figs are a bright yellow with a light red flesh and the taste of strawberry jam. One of the most cold hardy light skinned figs, Brooklyn White can die back to the roots in very cold winters and grow back to produce figs that next season. Packed with step by step instructions on how to root Now including a willow twig with each purchase to make willow water!!!Willow Water is a homemade plant rooting hormone that is easily prepared and can be used to increase the strike rate (growth of roots) of cuttings that we’re trying to propagate. Steps:Take the twigs and cut them up into short pieces around 2.5cm (1″) long.Place the chopped willow twigs into a containerTo extract the natural plant rooting hormones, either fill the jar with boiling water to cover the twigs, just like making tea, and allow to stand overnight; or use unheated tap water and allow to soak for several days.Separate the liquid from the willow twigs by pouring through a strainer or sieve. The willow water is now ready to use for rooting cuttings.To use willow water for propagating cuttings, pour some into a small jar, and place the cuttings in there like flowers in a vase, and leave them there to soak overnight for several hours so that they take up the plant rooting hormone. The cuttings can then be put into a propagating medium and prepared in the usual way to grow roots.The second way to use willow water is to use it to water the propagating medium into which the cuttings have been inserted. Watering the cuttings twice with willow water should be enough to help them root.Once the fig cutting is planted, willow water can also use as natural fertilizer to water your plant. the willow will help root growth in the ground
