Fig (Ficus) Brown Turkey Brown Turkey is the most reliable fig for the UK climate & in late August to mid September produces a heavy crop of violet-brown fruits with sweet red flesh
- harvest & enjoy! Plants are very vigorous & growth should be limited by restricting the roots to a large container (which will also encourage fruit formation). If you want to grow a fig as a traditional shaped tree on the patio, our beautiful 'standard' plants (pictured) are ideal. Alternatively the bush is easily trained against a wall & pruned to fit the required space. Supplied as "standard" in a 3 litre pot. Figs will bring a Mediterranean flavour to your garden, combining handsome foliage with a tasty & bountiful harvest. They’re vigorous plants, so growth should be limited by restricting the roots to a large container (which will also encourage fruit formation). Alternatively they can easily be trained on a wall & pruned to fit the required space. These varieties are strong-growing & quick to start fruiting &, once mature, will withstand the coldest winters. For planting & growing advice read our fig-tree-growing-guide.
