Description

The Bearded Fig Tree (Ficus citrifolia) is a majestic, fast-growing tropical tree native to the Caribbean and parts of Central and South America. Known for its wide, sprawling canopy and its distinctive curtain of aerial roots — which gives it the name “Bearded” Fig — this tree can grow to impressive heights, often becoming a focal point in the landscape. The Bearded Fig produces small, round figs that serve as an important food source for birds, bats, and other wildlife, playing a vital role in supporting local ecosystems. Its dense foliage provides excellent shade, and the tree’s twisting roots and sculptural trunk give it a dramatic, ancient appearance. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, the Bearded Fig Tree is not only a symbol of strength and resilience but also believed to be the tree that inspired the name of Barbados, “Los Barbados,” meaning “The Bearded Ones” in Portuguese.
