Fig 'Brown Turkey' - Fan Trained

Fig 'Brown Turkey' - Fan Trained

Fig 'Brown Turkey' is a reliable and productive fig, valued for its sweet, richly flavoured fruit with purple-brown skin and soft red flesh. This fan-trained form has been carefully shaped to create a broad framework of branches, making it ideal for growing against a sunny wall or fence.

The attractive deeply lobed foliage gives the plant a distinctive Mediterranean appearance throughout summer. Fruits develop during the warmer months and ripen from late summer into early autumn, particularly when grown in a warm, sheltered position.

'Brown Turkey' performs best in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Restricting the roots can encourage better fruit production, making it particularly suitable for planting against walls, in raised beds or in large containers. Fan-trained plants benefit from regular tying-in and pruning to maintain their shape and encourage productive growth.
