Bring the Mediterranean home with the Thompson and Morgan Ficus Carica Perretta Plant Pot 3L.

With attractive large, lobed leaves adding visual appeal, this self-fertile fig is simple to grow and suits patios, small gardens or training against a wall, needing just regular watering and a sunny, sheltered position to flourish. How to grow: Light: Full sun. Temperature: Warm and sheltered. Watering: Water regularly, especially when fruiting. Allow soil to dry slightly between waterings. Feeding: Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser during the growing season. Humidity: Average humidity is fine; avoid waterlogged conditions.
