Moraceae, also known as the fig family, is a diverse group of plants that includes some fascinating and iconic species. From the majestic Ficus elastica, commonly known as the Indian rubber tree, to the delicious Black Mulberry and vibrant Figue violette (Ficus violacea), these plants captivate with their beauty and utility. One remarkable member of this family is the Banyan fig tree (Ficus benjamina), which stands alone as a single individual tree. Its sprawling branches and intricate aerial roots create an awe-inspiring sight in any landscape. Similarly impressive are the Roots of Ficus socotrana found in botanical gardens like Jardin Botanico Canario, showcasing nature's architectural marvels. The Strangler fig (Ficus sp) adds another layer of intrigue by growing over trees like Hoop Pine (Araucaria cunninghamii), intertwining its roots with those of its host. This symbiotic relationship results in a breathtaking fusion of two distinct species. In Lord Howe island's Valley of Shadows lies the grandeur of Banyan tree (Ficus macrophylla). Its ancient presence casts an enchanting aura over its surroundings, reminding us of nature's resilience and endurance. Meanwhile, Tongbiguan Nature Reserve boasts a 1000-year-old grove filled with magnificent Banyan fig trees (Ficus benghalensis), standing tall as living testaments to time itself. Moraceae not only provides shelter for flora but also sustenance for fauna. The Forest dormouse (Dryomys nitedula) finds nourishment amidst Mulberries in Bulgaria while Spectral tarsiers seek refuge during daylight hours within Ficus sp. -laden roost trees. Lastly, we witness how Strangler fig stems grow and merge into each other atop Green Mountains—a testament to nature's ability to adapt and thrive even under challenging circumstances. From their striking appearances to their ecological significance, Moraceae plants continue to mesmerize and inspire.
