Cluster Fig (Ficus racemosa) (forum)

Kak starts with ...
Hi All,

I have been searching for some Cluster Fig's (Ficus racemosa) to purchase for a while now with little success. Does anyone know where I can get around four of these plants from? They have to be Ficus racemosa and no other species unfortunately. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Kak

What about the Brisbane city botanic garden around the outside fence, or MT Cootha. They should grow from cuttings.

They are the common red cluster fig around here and unlike the dozen or so common green cluster figs with lowland,upland and vine thicket forms.The upland ones are tasteless but still enjoyed by cassowaries,musky rat kangaroos and fig parrots.They may be 30m tall at times.
