We have a Brown Turkey fig in a pot.

It produces a few figs each year - it would do far better in the
ground,
but that is in the future.

Anyway, the first two figs have ripened.

Yum!

Had the first figs off Brunswick and White Marseilles tonight, Brown
Turkey is still at least two weeks off, as you say yum!


Each year as we pick the first crop, we look at the second crop coming
through.

My understanding is that in the right conditions (which I assume includes
a longer season) Brown Turkey is a continuous cropper.

Not happened yet, though.
