This huge fig tree was growing in the middle of a kid's playground. It looked to us like the best playground equipment of all!

I forgot the name of this type of fig and it has no tag for me to remember, but I decided to try and bonsai it in a away since it was in a TINY little pot and looked like it could do with a bigger one. So I potted it up the other day and after this shot was done I gave it a little trim. It might work. :)

Up closer to the house is where the fruit trees are. Here's Grannie showing me the little figs on her massive fig trees. She's going to call me when they are ripe so I (hopefully with my nephews' help) can pick them for her. We're going to make fig preserves and all sorts of other things

A fig tree growing in Brisbane. These aerial prop roots add support for the large boughs, allowing the tree to keep spreading and eventually cover a large area.
This is some type of banyan fig -- either a "true" (Indian) banyan (Ficus benghalensis) or a Moreton Bay fig (Ficus macrophylla). I can't tell them apart.
The Arbour is visible in the background, on the far left.

Not far from where we stayed in Cyprus was a ruined house with an olive and a fig tree. There were many wild flowers too.I think it will have a villa on it now but I thought it was a lovely place to draw.
"Ficus pumila" This is the grown up version of that tiny-leafed pot plant known as the "Creeping Fig." My neighbor planted it to cover an old Chinese Tallow Tree but our warm climate allowed it to flourish into a 20+' monster with woody stems and these 3" to 4" fruits. It covered the Tallow trunk and suffocated it until a large limb fell. They hired a crew to remove it.
