Description

Grown from seed this isias Red-leaf Fig Tree, otherwise known as the White Fig (due to the color of the syconium). This one is thriving and ready for a new home.

This species is found in India, southeast Asia, Malaysia and into Northern Australia, locally known as pilkhan.  Its a fig tree belonging to the group  known as strangler figs, it can start growing in the canopy of other trees sending down aerial roots to the ground.

Somewhat hard to find in US this species is a beautiful ornamental with its red leaves and is regularly used in bonsai. Hardy to zone 10, perhaps zone 9b but will need to be protected from frost. in colder areas can be brought indoors and kept under bright light, the species does very well growing in a pot.

Thank you for looking,

Greg Knoell
