A variety purported to have originated from a fig tree found near Chelsea Bridge, in London, ‘Chelsea’ is a truly excellent variety, producing an abundance of delicious fruit at the end of summer
Particularly flavourful, the tree’s figs are brown when ripe and display exceptional sweetness – our favourite thing to do? Dry the fruit out and have them as healthy little “pick-me-ups” to get through those mid-afternoon slumps
The tree is wreathed in lovely, lobed deep green foliage, ensuring great ornamental value alongside its fabulous fruit
Growing to only a couple of metres tall, this tree makes a great option for smaller gardens, and is particularly well-suited to container planting in a Mediterranean-style courtyard garden
When planting fig trees in the ground, it’s recommended that you restrict the spread of their roots, as this encourages greater fruiting. To do this, you can use a purpose-designed root bag or use some paving slabs and rubble when planting
