Botanical Name: Ficus carica 'ZaoHuang'
Family: Musaceae
Cultivar Intro:
Ficus carica 'Zao Huang' (commonly known as Xinjiang Early Yellow Fig) belongs to the Ficus genus of the Moraceae family. As one of the oldest cultivated fruit trees in the world, it originated from the Mediterranean coast and was introduced to China during the Han Dynasty via Persia, later spreading to the Central Plains from Xinjiang in the Tang Dynasty. Today, it is widely cultivated across northern and southern China, with southern Xinjiang as a major production area. This variety has gained popularity as a potted plant due to its dual value in ornamentation and fruit production.
