Ficus petiolaris Rock Fig Tissue Culture Plants Ornamental Foliage
Key Botanical Clarification
While Ficus petiolaris does not form bulbs (underground storage structures characteristic of species like lilies or onions), it uniquely develops a caudex—a woody, enlarged stem base positioned at or above soil level.
This specialized structure, often described as "bulbous" due to its swollen appearance, acts as a vital reservoir for water and nutrients, enabling the plant to endure prolonged droughts in its native rocky, arid habitats. The caudex’s adaptive function, combined with its ability to cling to cliff faces via cascading roots, has earned the species its common name "rock fig".
