Ficus Microcarpa (or Macrocarpa) is commonly known as Indian Laurel, Curtain Fig, Chinese Banyan, or Ficus Ginseng Tree. It is a tropical tree with smooth light grey bark and oblanceolate leaves. This latex-containing, evergreen tree with a rounded, or flattened crown shape has slender aerial roots hanging down from branches, and twigs. Its roots eventually develop into stout, and pillar roots. Figs usually grow as epiphytes on other plants, sending down aerial roots that extend to the ground and nourish the plant.

Sunlight : Ficus Microcarpa prefers almost six hours of sunlight. However, the hottest hours’ direct sunlight is not ideal. Indirect sunlight is the best option.
