Family : Moraceae
Central Queensland to Southern NSW.
Out in the open Ficus macrophylla has a relatively compact rounded crown but in rainforest situation it can reach an enormous size,up to 50m high and a stem diameter of up to 240cm. While it can be grown directly in the ground it often starts its life high up in the canopy gradually enmeshing the host as its roots follow the host tree to the ground.
It has glossy lustrous leaves and develops massive flanged and irregularly wide buttresses to support its huge volume in shallow, sometimes waterlogged, soils.
The fruit varies with maturity from green through orange to purple when ripe and is edible but quite dry to taste.The fruit can appear at any time but generally Feb-May.

Whimsy fabric. Finished Aug 2010
This was taken with my old iphone before I had a fancy-shmancy camera. Terrible pic but gorgeous quilt! Made from a pattern in one of the Jelly Roll pattern books. I can't remember now but will look it up if anyone is interested. Send me FM.

jack with insane austrailian fig tree. apparently u plant it it in the upper branches of any tree and it grows downwards until it strangles the plant at the roots. pretty cool
I recently started a quilt for our bed. I'll be lucky to be finished by next Christmas. For this Christmas, I made pillowcases to match the quilt using this tutorial.

I was in Vanuatu for two weeks with a group from my Church. Turns out the beaches are just as nice as the locals.
Figtree Creek, low tide. This creek has been a home to boats like this for as long as Yeppoon has been around, maybe longer. Check out CQ hustory Wiki for a photo of the creek from 100 years ago.
Day 2/5 – day two of the Black and White Challenge. “Fig Foot” is the name I gave to this very old fig tree (Ficus natalensis) near Figtree Lodge, the original homestead at Tala in KwaZulu-Natal. The fig has many traditional medicinal uses and is prime habitat for bats. The picture was made with a 20-35mm zoom lens near the wide end. Quite Tolkienesque…
