We have black land farming soil with clay. The nurseryman told me to dig a much bigger hole than necessary. Put sand in the bottom of the hole, then place the fig tree on that and fill the rest of the hole with sand. When yu first plant in the ground, you must water very deeply to begin with until it gets established. We just let the water hose drip on ours.

This Brown Turkey was planted last summer but i doubt that she will produce fruit this year.
