Ficus carica 'Brown Turkey'
Ficus 'Brown Turkey' is one of the most reliable and hardy fig varieties for UK gardens, producing both attractive foliage and delicious fruit. Its large, deeply lobed leaves create a bold, exotic look through summer, while its sweet, purple-brown figs with rich red flesh ripen from late August into September, rewarding growers with a tasty homegrown harvest.
This variety performs best when grown in a warm, sheltered position, ideally against a sunny south- or west-facing wall where it benefits from extra heat. It can also be grown successfully in a large container, which naturally restricts growth and encourages better fruiting. Hardy and low maintenance, ‘Brown Turkey’ is ideal for gardeners seeking both ornamental value and practical crops.
