Red-Leaved Fig (Ficus Ingens)
Ficus ingens is an evergreen tree with a briefly deciduous period, is up to 10 m, occasionally higher, with a rounded or spreading crown and with a spread of up to 30 m wide. All the parts have milky latex when broken. The bark is grey, smooth and becomes cracked in older specimens.
The roots spread across rock faces and penetrate almost imperceptible cracks, sometimes splitting the rock. In this case this Fig tree was pressed up against a rock face stretching high above. I couldnt go further back due to a cliff behind me so you cannot see the true height of this massive tree. |
