Good day,

 I have Kathleen Black starting. It is a slow grower so far. May be hard to find an actual plant.

As a heads up. I am in Ct., I know a couple people who have Panache in the Bridgeport area. None of these people have managed a ripe fig.

 That being said I have a small one started from a gifted cutting.

Anyone this far north have any success with Panache?

  Thanks, Mike

Hi,
In which usda Zone are you ?
Here in Zone7, a neighbor manages to get 1/10 of the figs to (sort of) ripen or so . I doubt that those figs get perfectly ripe ...
I now have a Panache too ! I want to see, learn and taste by myself !
Getting the all crop is just a dream. Even with last year's long season most of the Panache (of the neighbor) stayed unripe on the tree.
Own test is started !

I just heard that the panache won't rippen in 7a. Too bad I would just like to look at them they look cool. Anyway modifying list to violet de bordeaux , latturalla and Kathleen's black . I thought I had a VDB but it's a green fig most likely kadota (thanks TyTy!!!)
