I am sooo sorry oops lol. I have a friend named Neli. Can I start over? Haha I recently just started working on ficus aurea I don't have any other figs. My cousin has a Ficus aurea growing on a palmetto bush on his property. He doesn't care for trees. I only took cuttings because I thought if I got it off the Palm it wouldn't make it. But now I know. I am going to have to pay my cousin a visit. Thank you sista Neli :)

I think I could lift it . I would have to stand on a platform or my work truck. Thank you I will need the luck. Now I am waiting for the ok. My cousin doesn't own the property. But I told him to tell the owner thay I will remove it for free. Most people out here in Florida don't want them growing on their PalmettoTrees. They grow fast on the,Palmetto because of the stump choir left on the trunk from old palm frond prunings. Hopefully the property owner says yes.

Make sure you take lots of pictures and dig it when it warms up.
