0178: Calimyrna Fig

Order: Rosales
Family: Moraceae
Tribe: Ficeae
Genus: Ficus
Subgenus: Ficus
Species: F. carica

Over a year ago, Rick and I transplanted several fig shoots from his adult tree. I foster them in pots until finding permanent homes for them. This one is now planted at my friend Ben's house in Santa Rosa. The mother tree at Rick's house is known to be a Calimyrna fig, the California version of the Smyrna fig.
