It is not even slightly less tasty than the cultivated fig. This wild-growing fruit differs from the superior cultivated types only in that it is similar in size. In size too, there is a lot of variation among the wild plants because of their seedling origin and one frequently comes across trees with larger fruits. But still, the wild figs are generally much smaller than the cultivated ones . . . A medium-sized tree attaining a height between 6 and 10 meters; wood moderately hard; leaves broad, 13 cm long and 14 cm wide, rough; flowering March-April; fruit globose, 2.6 cm wide, weight 6.5 g, deep violet to black when ripe, sweet and juicy with a little astringency, overall fruit quality excellent; fruiting season second half of June to the first half of July; yield 20-25 kg per tree . . . According to some books on Indian medicinal plants, the fruits of the wild fig are demulcent and laxative. They are recommended as an item of diet in cases of constipation and in diseases of the lungs and bladder. These are also used as a poultice."1720342DFIC 332
