How do I care for a brown turkey fog tree?

Answer by  mammakat (11147)

Your fig is hardy to 15 degrees F, so if up north, container plant so the fig can be moved indoors. The fig prefers a great deal of sun, so container plants may dry out quickly. Leaves will turn yellow and drop if not enough water. Water mature trees thoroughly 1-2 wks. Fertilize judiciously if potted.

Place in full sunlight and water regularly but not so much in the winter. Prune during growing season. Repot every 2-3 years, feed regularly but not during the winter.

Your fig tree should be planted in an area where it will receive full sunlight for at least 8 hours a day. If you live where it gets cold your fig tree should be planted in a container so that it can be brought in during the cold season.

water it once every couple of days, being sure not to over water it. make sure you live in an area where the climate matches it's native climate.

If you are having a brown fog tree problem then you will need to water it now. If you let the condition get worse then you will loose the whole tree.

We have a brown turkey fig, planted 2 months ago, not in direct sun but does get about 5 hrs. There is some fruit already on it but now has lost all its leaves. They just dropped and did not turn yellow first. What is our problem.
