Weeping Fig fruiting heavily
Hundreds of thousands of small ripe red fruits seen fruiting on this tree. Weeping figs are called for their long drooping leaves that shows it looks sad. This is from a large fig tree standing out in an oil palm plantation, probably fully covered the original host tree. It was fruiting heavily and producing lots of fig wasps which attracts lots of swifts flying around. All fruit stages are observed. This plantation company has some good fig trees growing in their land and my organization has obtained permission to collect and grow these fig trees in our reforestation sites.
''Ficus benjamina'', commonly known as weeping fig, benjamin fig or ficus tree, and often sold in stores as just ficus, is a species of flowering plant in the family Moraceae, native to Asia and Australia.
