MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

Ficus benjamina is an evergreen tree with a dense, wide crown; it can grow 15 - 30 metres tall. The bole can be 30 - 60cm in diameters. The plant usually begins life as an epiphyte, growing in the branch of another tree; as it grows older it sends down aerial roots which, when they reach the ground quickly form roots and become much thicker and more vigorous. They supply nutrients to the fig, allowing it to grow faster than the host tree.

ORIGIN

Ficus benjamina is native to the Asia-Oceania region but has been introduced around the world as a cultivated ornamental and hedge plant (Wiersema and Leon, 1999; Acevedo-Rodriguez and Strong, 2012; USDA-ARS, 2014). It was reportedly present in the West Indies in the early twentieth century; although it was not included in D. Bello’s work on Puerto Rico (1881; 1883), the species was reportedly present in most of the West Indies islands including Cuba, Puerto Rico, St. Lucia, Barbados, and Trinidad by 1903, as I. Urban included the species in Volume 3 of his work on the Antilles (Urban, 1898-1928). J.G. Jack collected specimens in Cuba in 1926 and 1927, and D. Fairchild collected a specimen on St. Vincent in the Grenadines in 1932 (Smithsonian Herbarium Collection).

Elsewhere, F. benjamina was cultivated in England by Philip Miller in 1757 and was introduced to the USA several times from various countries including Nassau (Bahamas) in 1906, Australia in 1915, Sumatra in 1926, and the Philippines in 1929 (Condit, 1969). It was reportedly accidentally introduced to Israel by 1992 through agriculture (DAISIE, 2014).
