Penachee

Here's more positive fig information/ picture sharing for the fig loving community.

Penachee aka Penache aka various other spellings is by far the best non dark fig in my opinion and the most beautiful of any fig. Heard it doesn't like summer rain but in hot dry summer areas like California it's amazing. Now a commercial variety in California along with black Mission, you may have seen it at the grocery stores under "Tiger Figs" label. Very very vigorous and late season.

How has it performed for you?






The pictures were from the 2016 season, not January 2017 :-)

Currently -9°C (16°F) here in Toronto. Your Penache pic just brightened my day. Just a perfect looking fig. Thanks for sharing...

How old is your tree, how productive and what size container are you using. My four year old tree is in a seven gallon SIP container and still hasn't produced a single fig. I tried pruning it last year but it did not help.
There was a couple of days when it did not get any water and I almost lost it. It is still alive and I might move it to a larger pot soon.

Nice. I am rooting a cutting and looking forward to some nice decorative fruit.

This one is on my short list.

Nice looking panache.

Absolutely beautiful! Looks so delicious!

Sas it's an in ground tree. I'm surprised yours hasn't fruited yet. Strange

This was one of the first trees that I've gotten after tasting the CA fruit. I keep hoping next season perhaps. Your fruit looks perfect, enjoy.
