The distinctive Panache Tiger Fig Tree produces attractive fruits with a green and yellow striped exterior. One of the most aesthetically pleasing fig trees around. Additionally, the current year branches will also have a striped appearance similar to the fruit. The strawberry-colored flesh on the inside is sweet and tasting like berries.
The plants have good vigor, with growth up to 12 feet tall and multiple branches. Fruits ripen very late in the season, so Tiger Fig plants thrive in climates with long growing seasons, but with an early start, or a greenhouse for an extended season it could ripen fruit anywhere.
Cuttings will have a length between 6-10 inches long and contain a minimum of 3 nodes. Thickness will be a minimum of pencil thick. Cuttings will be fully lignified unless otherwise stated.
