[Chrisk]

Yeah ok.... Show offs. Am I the only one in this forum that ended up with a dead Panachee? Lol.
Well done Brian. Your is awesome looking as well.

[greenfig]

That's a Panachee frenzy
We should compare the ripe figs when they are ready!

[Chrisk]

Ok here's mine! You guys forced my hand!

[jkuo]

LOL, I think you have one the Rimadas there. The striping pattern is a bit different than a typical Panache. :-P

[Taverna78]

Ahahaha!! You are fig Picasso !!

[greenfig]

Nice, Chris!
I think your leaves have slightly different shape than mine

[Chrisk]

Oh ok I confess ,it's a lightly stripped PH with brebas. Blame it on the Panachee envy lol. Yall have a great night

[JimmyS]

Panache I bought yesterday from Rabbit ridge nursery.

[Rafaelissimmo]

Looks healthy, good luck w it!

[COGardener]

I thought I read that Panache likes a lot of heat and requires a long season to ripen. Is this true, and if so how does it perform for those in the north? Us poor lowly zone 5 peeps.

[Rafaelissimmo]

Scott I put mine in the greenhouse on 3/2 to give it the long season it needs, even so I have my concerns as it is very slow to mature fruit. Those figlets are about 1 month old. 90 more days puts us to the end of August, so I guess I will have fruit ripening before summer's end, I will keep you posted.

[COGardener]

Thank you Rafa, I can start them early and extend the season if needed. So I think I will give one a try, worst case I trade or gift it in a few years.

Last year mine here in ON, Canada looked like it was going to be one of the first to ripen but then they just sat there and did nothing... none swelled and none ripened before the cool fall weather came Hoping for better luck this year.

Here is my Home Depot Panache i got a month ago. Its 5 feet tall now with two figs. I hope one day it'll be productive as everybody else's......you guys have tons of figs!

[COGardener]

Looks great Q, I bet next year it will have a great crop.

[Q*]

Thanks Scott! I hope so....i was thinking of air layering it in half...or in thirds....i think its too tall. Let me know in a couple of months if youre still interested in growing it. If the air layers work out well i can send you one for shipping or trade.

[COGardener]

That would be great Q, let me know.

[Taverna78]

Tis is my Tiger Panache I get from HarveyC. Take advice to air layer because Is Tall and slender with wonderful top growth and only one bud starting in the first foot of the tree. I hope tis work so I can now have 2 tree😁

kills me that the belle Clown Panache you can not eat. It looks delicious ! But is hard to keep I hear

[COGardener]

My three JF&E trees are the same, 4' tall with all of the growth at the top. I've been thinking about air layering them into two or there trees as well.

I think I'm going to wait until next year, I already have fruit started and would rather have the fruit this year.

[Taverna78]

I wish I have fruit grow on mine. But I don't think tis year.

[COGardener]

It's early, it's still quite possible.

[Brian M]

Taverna I would try pinching a few tips. It may possibly set fruit

[HarveyC]

For the past two years my first ripe Panache was about July 23rd, I believe, and the weather had not been particularly hot. This growing season started early but we've had much cooler than normal weather for at least the past few weeks. For some reason, that's not being talked about by most folks.

[greenfig]

Harvey,
I agree that the latest weather has not been discussed much in here but probably because many people outside CA/AZ finally can go outside in their shorts
The summer is coming regardless of the noise we would create here, that’s for sure!

I am actually very glad to have so many cooler days. All my cuttings go straight outside from the coco bin and have enough time to get adjusted before the heat comes back.

[Taverna78]

Move here. Snow littlest night and almost 80F today!
Shorts... Tis is funny....
