Ficus caria ‘Brown Turkey’

Description

Ficus ‘Brown Turkey’

A fine fig variety renowned for its red-fleshed fruits, characterized by a moderate growth rate and ease of cultivation. Optimal growth can be achieved by either cultivating it in a spacious container or controlling root expansion by lining the planting hole with broken slabs, which promotes fruit production.

Minimal pruning is required, primarily to maintain the framework in late spring. Expect the fruits to ripen from August to October. This fig variety thrives in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Pair it with companions like Citrus trees or Olive trees for a Mediterranean-inspired garden retreat.
