Notes:
Found this seed pod on the ground last week (Thanksgiving), not sure what type of plant it came from and have no other descriptive information.
When I opened it up it smelled very fragrant, quite like a magnolia but is clearly very undeveloped. Is it a ficus that just never developed? Seems a little late for figs.
Ann Seigies Unregistered says:
Sure is a fig, Ficus carica. Are leaves large and simply lobed with stiff velcro-like undersides? Is there latex in the leaves or branches?
