Hi, everyone I have three Panache small tree which is rooted this year feb-march. IT took me a lot of patience and caring but finally it looks like they are growing. I can see even variegated pattern in the green growth. i read somewhere before being a variegated plant they grow very slowly. Can anyone shed some light on that. Hopefully next year I can get some fruit. Lucky to have them in my collection. Thanks.

I started one from a cutting and it grew to about 3 1/2 feet. I think that's about average but it all depends on a list of things such as: soil, fertilizer, amount of sun, heat and what strain the cutting was taken from. Once the root system is developed enough it should kick in some good growth. __________________ Zone 6a Sarver, PA Wish list; Rafed's Genovese Nero

Nice figs aikjogja, hopefully I will have the soon same. I agree with you guys, hard to understand their mood, feels like they are in a mood to grow. So fingers crossed. Panache is very hard to find in Australia, So I will take great care of them. __________________ Wish list: CDDN, CDDB AND MARTINENCA RIMADA.

Hi, Here,I know where there is one panaché in ground - not in my garden. It is four years old, and the trunk is 4 or 5 centimeters large at ground level. the main trunk is a meter high. It is far faster than "longue d'aout" but far slower than "Dalmatie" . The "panaché" threw 20 centimeters on each branch this year - although being an established tree in ground - ( but taking cold winters ). But, it probably lacks fertilizer, care, and suffers from its shaded place. This year, it did ripe some figs. At least, I saw a ripen exploded one on the tree. I don't know if it did rip some normal ones. __________________ ------------------------ Climate from -25°C to + 35°C Only cold hardy figtrees can make it here

Variegated plants only tend to grow slow when they have a light colour with the green and the reason for growing slower is due to less chlorophyll being present. For me Panachee grows like a weed. __________________ Canada Zone 6B

All my panache trees have the darkest leaves of all the figs varieties I have. What about yours? __________________ Wish: Sbayi, passiflora incense, quadrangularis or others

@aikjogja: all my trees are in ground. I know that I have rodent problems with my longue d'aout. But I still think that it is a slow grower, nether sending root-shootings. Hopefully, next year mine will perform better... Hopefully ! I may end buying a second tree ... Perhaps just a problem with this particular tree - or the place where is stays. But my "Dalmatie" is one meter away from the "longue d'aout" and it does perform really better with several root shoots ... __________________ ------------------------ Climate from -25°C to + 35°C Only cold hardy figtrees can make it here

Mine is very vigorous with all branches growing 5-6' this year. I see some leaves with mild signs of FMV but it's sure not slowing it down. The tree essentially receives no fertilizer. __________________ Harvey - Correia Farms Isleton, CA (Sacramento County) USDA zone 9b, Sunset zone 14 http://www.figaholics.com https://www.facebook.com/Figaholics
