Product Description
Picking plump, juicy figs straight from a tree is one of life’s greatest pleasures, especially when served up with some wafer thin slices of Parma ham and a drizzle of honey. Divine!
Boasting masses of large, pear-shaped fruit with deep red flesh that are ready for picking in late summer and early autumn, Brown Turkey is perfect in a large pot or grown in the ground. Even before the fruit is ripe the large shrub or small tree adds a presence to the garden as branches are clothed with large, deeply lobed leaves.
Despite originating from warmer climes, this amazing fig is incredibly tough, easily shrugging off temperatures down to -15C in the UK. Extremely drought tolerant when established, figs do best in a brightly lit, sunny spot.
Keep plants productive and compact by restricting roots by growing in large pots or planting in 60cm square planting holes fill the base with a layer of gravel and line sides with paving slabs.

I had occasion to tell Garden Bargains about a failed product (which in itself was unusual) without quibble the lifetime guarantee was honoured and a replacement was with me within 48 hours (not the fig tree). Well done GB!!

What I expected. the delivery arrived as expected and the tree is now in a frost free corner of my garden no complaints about the quality of the tree and it was well packed and not knocked about.
