I don't know why i am very drawn to old buildings. When i see one i begin to think who lived here... where they are now or their descendants, if the owner had any beautiful daughter or daughter-in-law... sorts of thing!!!

While looking at this building i noticed a Ficus and thought we have Ficus lovers in our group :)

Dear Pankaj Joshi Ji,

At the time of recording this tree i was thinking of Ficus rumphii Bl. I have earlier posts of F. rumphii - https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups=#!topic/indiantreepix/ocvRBpvxenQ.

Now, i see that F. arnottiana also looks very similar. But the herbarium found in http://envis.frlht.org/showherbarium.php?d=958 shows cordate leaves in F. arnottiana Miq.

I think my species matches with -
  1. http://www.plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=130159
  2. http://www.plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=50690
However, it will take  be very hard to get its fruits. I will try.

Thank you very much.

Regards,
surajit
