Fig - Fruit & Nuts

Fig : Brown Turkey 1 bush in 4L pot Specially selected for the UK climate as Brown Turkey is fully hardy and can be grown very successfully outdoors, producing large crops of sweet and juicy figs with a deep red flesh under their brown skins. Makes a dramatic feature plant fan trained against a wall or in a container on the patio. Fruits ripen August to September. The perfect fruit to grow in containers on your patio, and will consistently produce large volumes of tasty fruit. - more info from T&M

Fig : Brown Turkey Standard 1 bush in 4L pot The most reliable fig for the UK climate, producing a heavy crop of purple-brown fruits with sweet red flesh. Plants are very vigorous and growth should be limited by restricting the roots to a large container (which will also encourage fruit formation). Supplied as a 'standard' plant in a 4 litre pot. - more info from T&M

Fig : Brunswick 1 bush in 4L pot Attractive trees with enormous hand shaped leaves have medium vigour making them ideal for growing in containers. Produces a heavy crop of medium sized pear shaped fruits with the sweetest of flavours. Ideal for growing in the UK as Brunswick tolerates coller wetter growing conditions and is a lot hardier than other varieties. - more info from T&M

Fig : Violetta 1 bush in 4L pot The Bavarian fig and in our opinion the most hardy, best flavoured and heaviest cropping fig available. Produces very hardy figs of exceptional eating quality. Unlike other figs, Violetta needs regular watering and feeding to grow well, when the over wintering figs will mostly ripen in June, followed by a superb crop in September. Perfect for growing in containers. - more info from T&M
