I know someone in NNSW has a tree that produces fruit, apparently quite tasty. Unfortunately they don't seem to produce seed in Australia so they can only be propagated by marcotting or taking cuttings.
Hahaha this one was made as a mini doco. I played around with the idea of a second channel for a bit as you know but I don’t have the time, just going to keep this one channel going when I can. As a result a have a few mini docos in the backlog to put up here :)
I've seen pictures of them before, fascinating plants. Like the jaboticaba of the fig world 😁
Haha I know what you mean! There are a few native figs that are also cauliflorous (fruit on the trunk), but not like this.
Thanks mate. Have heard of them before but didn't know we had them here.
Thanks Rob, this one was at Mt Cootha.

I'm from Bangladesh, and it's very common in our country.
I have that tree in my front yard.
Where to get planting materials? I am here in the Philippines but no fig like that one.

that tasty tree in nnsw must be female? but it doesn't get pollinated?
I find your fascination quite fascinating.😉
They do look interesting though.

It’s pronounced rox-bur-a like Edinburgh
If this figs is tropical fruit
Why's the name is in europe? Roxburgh???
Europe always do this to all plants. Even the plants never seen in europe
It is named after the botanist William Roxburgh (appointed Superintendent of the Calcutta Botanical Gardens by the East India Company in 1793).
