I have brown turkey, planted straight into the ground. Heavy clay, north
facing about 5 miles from the Wash.Fruits well every year.


We had a discussion about figs last autumn and I was advised to plant my
tree outside but surrounded by the drum of an old washing machine to
prevent the roots spreading. In the end, I left the tree in its huge
pot. I is coming along nicely.
