Fig ID please
What fig is this? The cordate leaf base is the main clue.

ID fig
Hailun
The tree is not a Port Jackson fig. It does not have the characteristic rusty coloration of the undersides of the leaves. Also, ficus rubiginosa has ovate (egg-shaped) leaves, not ones with cordate (heart shaped) bases like my mystery fig.
The leaf shape eliminates rubiginosa, macrophylla or obliqua from the possible IDs for this tree.
