The most reliable fig for UK outdoor growing. Large, brown-purple fruits. Needs a warm, sheltered wall.
Flavour
Sweet and honeyed with a mild nuttiness and subtle earthiness, Brown Turkey figs offer a balanced flavour that’s both rich and approachable.
In the kitchen
Excellent when grilled over fire to caramelise their sugars, they add depth to savoury dishes or make a stunning BBQ dessert when paired with smoky cheeses or cured meats.
Growing
Requires a warm, sheltered spot ideally against a south-facing wall; tolerates typical UK conditions well but benefits from well-drained soil and protection from harsh winds.
