Hi, This could be Ficus callosa as aerial roots are not seen. Ficus drupacea usually has a few aerial roots. Have it on my property at Shahapur. My photographs of a Ficus drupacea tree at Phansad WLS are available at this link : https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!search/Ficus$20drupacea$20Neil$20Soares/indiantreepix/s852_6hecN4/9tAIpuONjg8J Am sending my photographs of Ficus callosa for comparison in a separate mail. With regards, Neil Soares. --- On Thu, 1/17/13, J.M. Garg <[email protected]> wrote: From: J.M.
