Ficus retusa

Ficus , a species evergreen woody plant of the fig genus that is native to the Malay Archipelago Floral Region and Malesia floristic area, . The species name has been widely mis-applied to Ficus microcarpa.

Ficus retusa is a rapidly growing, rounded, broad-headed, evergreen shrub or tree that can reach 10 metres (33 ft) in height with an equal spread. The smooth, light grey trunk is quite striking, can grow to around 1 metre (3.3 ft) in diameter, and it firmly supports the massively spreading canopy.

The tree has glabrous obovate leaves, usually longer than 10 centimetres (3.9 in) and spirally arranged. The bark is gray-to-reddish with horizontal flecks called lenticels. These lenticels are used by woody species to exchange additional gas through the bark. The name is commonly used to refer to ornamental indoor plants (for example bonsai) widely cultivated in temperate regions, but such plants generally belong to another species, Ficus microcarpa. The two species can be distinguished from the length of the leaf blade (usually 10-20 centimetres (3.9-7.9 in) for F. retusa, and usually less than 10 centimetres (3.9 in) for F. microcarpa but rarely up to 15 centimetres (5.9 in)).
