(Or I have been thinking that it is for this long) http://singaporeplantgrower.blogspot.in/2012/10/ficus-hispida.html Vinayaraj V R Does it look like - 1. http://www.nhm.ac.uk/nature-online/art-nature-imaging/ collections/endeavour-botanical/detail.dsml?IMAGNO=002373 <http://www.nhm.ac.uk/nature-online/art-nature-imaging/collections/endeavour-botanical/detail.dsml?IMAGNO=002373> ? 2. http://www.plantillustrations.org/species.php?id_species=439077 ? Thank you Regards Surajit I think this is *Ficus hispida.* Close up pictures of leaves would have helped. The leaves are large, broad and has a very rough surface.- from Sandhya ji. Sorry for not posting the close up of a leaf. It is not Ficus hispida- what we call 'kattathi" with the characterstic leaf you have described. r.thilakan. Cochin. It do look similar to the pic in link no.1; but as you can see from my pics the fruits are borne on very long stalks. r.thilakan Yes, Dada, I do agree very much, it is very unusual.... else our *Ficus* lovers would have identified it much earlier. My guess was sort of wild, based on a couple of points though - 1) overall appearance 2) deciduous nature 3) appearance & size of figs..... far fetched imagination no doubt .... yet found two little support - i) the usual figs can be found in IMG_8869 and ii) one photograph http://donsmaps. com/images30/yamc1110120558.jpg at the site http://donsmaps.com/yamcamp.html I would be very happy to know the correct ID of this fig tree. Thank you Regards Surajit Three are at least 3 species with long drooping branches in http://phytoimages.siu.edu/cgi-bin/dol/dol_terminal.pl? taxon_name=Ficus&rank=genus <http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fphytoimages.siu.edu%2Fcgi-bin%2Fdol%2Fdol_terminal.pl%3Ftaxon_name%3DFicus%26rank%3Dgenus&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGmPJLROqTUpxaV2bhfOu31rB2CAA> and one in http://plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=50410, of-course exotic .... please see if matches, though I have doubt for discrepancies in either leaf or in fig.
