Hi,
I recently purchased a Brown Turkey Fig Tree as a gift for someone. It arrived with figs only just growing on it. However, I have to give it to them in a little while (9 days to be exact). As this gift is a surprise and they live in the same property leaving it outside isn't really an option, I'm afraid.
As of now, it's in the hightest room in the household, which is pretty warm but not much sunlight. Also, its still in the same soil and container it arrived in, although i do plan on changing it into a larger container and fresh compost. Which i do need advice on because the website I purchased it from mentioned something about placing rocks at the bottom on the container. Which has completely confused me.
Right now the plant looks as though it's sad (silly word to use , I know. But best one to describe it). I do know that it's not dying, as there are new leaves growing.
I just wanted to know what further care you recommend for the tree e.i, how much and how often will it need of food and water. As of right now you've probably realised i know absoluetly nothing about plants and in urgent need of help.
I'm truly sorry for the long story but i just wanted you to understand my situation.

I hope to hear from you very soon, Thank You.
