An Adult fiddle leaf Fig!?

Ever wondered what that frustrating fiddle leaf would look like in maturity? Well look no further.

Our here in Pakistan and specialty in my city the climate and weather are just right to match the South African habitat that the houseplant fiddle leaf tree we all know is from, so it's common to even see it as a street tree the first one is much younger one but you already see the flowers and yes fruits of the fiddle leaf fig on it.

Surprising they look a lot like small peaches to me, but with there giant seed inside small fruit plup.

So were they what you imagined? I specially love the shade of fiddle leaf they truly create this umbrella canopy with those giant leaves.

Funny from being a place native to many other figs, the scared fig to banyan we know even have a common house plant taking its reign as one of the best street tree 🌲🌳🌴

Here's what the seed looks like with the fruit pulp mostly peeled off, the fruit itself is no bigger than this too.

It's fruiting season currently right now too so once I get my hands on a freshly fallen fruit I'll post it here
@GardenCat43 the first time I saw a photo of the precious little FLF we all pamper in our homes, growing outside tall and strong I was so surprised!!! Someone on Greg lived in South America, I think Brazil, and the street had several mature FLF 🌳. What a difference the climate makes, right?!?!!
@MariansOasis indeed, just makes you wonder it does
Wowowow! I’ve never seen this! Thanks so much for sharing. I’m happy when it gets taller than me! when it I e
Wow ! Very cool
What species of Ficus is in the picture? It does not appear to be Ficus lyrata.
@pippi it is the fiddle leaf fig, the heat causes many to go through a season where they shed all there leaves that's why a lot of the leaves are red too
