Common fig. Description[edit] It is a gynodioecious (functionally dioecious),[3] deciduous tree or large shrub, growing to a height of 7–10 metres (23–33 ft), with smooth white bark.
Its fragrant leaves are 12–25 centimetres (4.7–9.8 in) long and 10–18 centimetres (3.9–7.1 in) across, and deeply lobed with three or five lobes. The complex inflorescence consists of a hollow fleshy structure called the syconium, which is lined with numerous unisexual flowers. The flower itself is not visible outwardly, as it blooms inside the infructescence.
