West African PLANT DATABASE - Result. Hardy Tropicals for Zone 5. Brown Turkey Fig Ficus carica 'Brown Turkey' Brown Turkey fig trees, also referred to as Texas Everbearing, Harrison, Ramsey, Lee's Perpetual, Brunswick, and others, are found primarily in eastern and central Texas. They produce large, sweet-tasting fruits, usually less sour than other types of figs. In order to encourage high fruit production, you must prune the tree during its youth. Many other types of figs do not need pruning at any point, but Brown Turkey figs should have heavy annual pruning sessions especially during winter dormancy. Brown Turkey is a common fig meaning it is self-pollinating and does not require another plant to bear fruit. It has a medium-sized eye opening that oozes when ripe, which is around late July. Brown Turkey is hardy in zones 8-10, however with winter protection this fig can be grown successfully in Zone 5.
Most cultivars of fig trees produce two crops, a spring crop on last season’s growth, and a summer or fall crop on new wood. Perdue U. Clematis on the Web :: welcome. Gymnosperm Database.
