    Ficus rubiginosa, known as the Port Jackson fig, is a native tree species in eastern Australia that grows up to 100 feet tall. It begins as a seedling that climbs other plants or rocks before maturing into a tree with a buttressed yellow-brown trunk. The small, round fruit can ripen and turn red year-round, peaking in spring and summer. Birds like pigeons and parrots eat the fruit, while the fig wasp Pleistodontes imperialis exclusively pollinates the flowers inside the fruit.

    Ficus rubiginosa, the Port Jackson fig, is


    a species of flowering plant native to eastern Australia.
    Beginning as a seedling that grows on other plants
    (hemiepiphyte) or rocks (lithophyte), it matures into a tree 3
    (100 ft) high and nearly as wide with a yellowbrown buttressed trunk. The leaves are oval and glossy gre
    and measure from 4 to 19.3 cm (1 127 12 in) long and 1.25
    13.2 cm (125 14 in) wide. The fruits are small, round and ye
    and can ripen and turn red at any time of year, peaking in
    spring and summer. The fruit is known as a syconium, an
    inverted inflorescence with the flowers lining an internal
    cavity. F. rubiginosa is exclusively pollinated by the fig
    wasp species Pleistodontes imperialis. Many species of bir
    including pigeons and parrots, eat the fruit. Ranging along
    Australian east coast from Queensland to Bega in
    southern New South Wales, F. rubiginosa grows
    in rainforest margins and rocky outcrops. It is used as a sh
    tree in parks and public spaces, and when potte
