Panache

Very ornamental tree with slightly molted leaves. Fruit high in sugar content. Skin striped green-yellow. Flesh bright red-purple. Extremely productive tree. Fruit tastes jam-like in texture. (002)

Dry flesh, but sweet. Leaves: not variegated; base calcarate, 3-5 lobes, latate; margins crenate. Condit says Panachée is mediocre to poor, but some aficionados in California say it produces excellent, fresh fruit. No brebas and main crop ripens late. Very poor in south Georgia in 1995-97. My plant may not be the same variety as the one grown in California. I got one plant from some cuttings Don Polensky sent me in January, 1998. I look forward to trialing it here. Synonyms: Panache, Tiger, Variegato. (006)
