I got a Panachee cutting past winter to have a backup of mine that is in a 7 gal now.
It has grown well but the only fig it produced had no stripes.
Is it going to be like that from now on, or it may get striped figs later on?

The taste was very-very good though!
The pot is 2 gal.
Caprified.

Igor, do you see any stripes on branches? I failed to see any from the picture you are showing. You sure it is Panachee'?

The fig looks amazingly delish (NOT relish...LOL) though.

Yes, the branches have yellowish stripes, same as the cutting they came from.

The mother plant had fruit and is definitely Panachee? 

Is it possible for a cutting to be genetically different from its mother?  Or maybe environmental factors caused it?  I do know that certain variegated landscape plants will revert if given too much nitrogen.

Phil,

Sorry, I reread my original post and I didn’t write it clearly there.
The reverted Panachee in this thread came from a different tree, not from my older one that has the striped figs.
The cutting had the characteristic to Panachee colors with brown and yellowing lines.

The leaves on this reverted and my other one are identical, the figs inside are also identical. I am 99% sure what I show here is a Panachee.

Panachee will very, very occasionally have a fig with no stripes. It may be one of the millions of combinations of stripes that are possible, as it looks like no two Panachee figs have exactly the same pattern. Though I have so far not seen a stripeless fig that was all light colored (yellowish), only dark colored (greenish).

Striped wood should continue to produce striped figs. Wood that has "reverted" to unstriped, with solid green figs has never gone back to being striped, in my experience.

The figs are as identical in performance and flavor as is possible. The Reverse (reverted Panachee) seems to ripen a bit earlier in hotter summers, and more concurrently in cooler summers, but not to an extent that really changes its season.

Interesting.
So you are saying that the striped wood produces the striped figs and vise versa? 
I will have to watch this fig closely next year in case it would produce different colors on different branches.
Also, I will mark the current, reverse, branch.

Hi Greenfig,
Is the fig the same as the one on the photo of the tree ?
I don't see stripes on those stems.
Is your tree a true reverse panache or a true panache that for the first time in her life has no stripes ?
Only future can tell if that tree is a true panache or a mixed up cutting . How old is that tree ? She looks bizarre to me . The leaves seem too big and the yearly growth too thick for "such a small" tree .
I would give that tree full sun exposure as that promotes the striped pattern - was that tree kept in a shaded spot ?
Good luck !

My panache lost its stripes on both the wood and the figs. It happened after it came out of dormancy.

jdsfrance,
See, Henry's Panachee lost its stripes. If you check the weather in Brawley, you will find it is the sunniest town on Earth where it can be as hot as in hell :)
The sun is not an issue, I guess.

The tree is a 1 yo cutting.

I have two other panache trees that have kept the stripes on the wood and the fruit. I hope they stay that way. I not sure what role the climate plays on the stripes here. But the fruit was still nice after it lost the stripe, I just wish the stripes had stayed because thats what I like about that particular fig tree. :)
