Description
Tropical evergreen tree are very appreciated for its great resistance and the emission of aerial roots, which give it a lot of character.The emission of aerial roots is a characteristic of many ficus species. Through them, the tree can extend its branches and occupy a large area of land. F. retusa can also develop as an epiphyte, germinating its seed in the crown of another tree, having been deposited with the dejection of a bird or other animal that has ingested its fruits (figs). From there, it emits its roots, which, sliding down the trunk of the host tree, reach the ground. At that time they begin to swell, reaching to strangle him. That's how he gets names like matapalo or dendrocida.
