안내 팻말에는 킹벤자민고무나무 Ficus benjamina로 되어 있지만  Ficus benjamina이 '벤자민고무나무'이므로 '벤자민고무나무'로 올린다. '킹벤자민고무나무'는 품종 Ficus benjamina 'Golden King'을 가리키는 것으로 보인다 

 

 

 

 

위키 설명

 

Ficus benjamina, commonly known as weeping(가지가 늘어진) fig, benjamin fig[3] or ficus tree, and often sold in stores as just ficus, is a species of flowering plant in the family Moraceae, native to Asia and Australia.[4] It is the official tree of Bangkok. The species is also naturalized in the West Indies and in the states of Florida and Arizona in the United States.[5][6] In its native range, its small fruit are favored by some birds.[7]

 

Description

Ficus benjamina is a tree reaching 30 m (98 feet) tall in natural conditions, with gracefully drooping branchlets and glossy leaves 613 cm (2+385+18 inches), oval with an acuminate tip. The bark is light gray and smooth. The bark of young branches is brownish. The widely spread, highly branching tree top often covers a diameter of 10 meters. It is a relatively small-leaved fig. The changeable leaves are simple, entire and stalked. The petiole is 1 to 2.5 cm (38 to 1 inch) long. The young foliage is light green and slightly wavy, the older leaves are green and smooth; the leaf blade is ovate to ovate-lanceolate with wedge-shaped to broadly rounded base and ends with a short dropper(點滴器) tip. The pale glossy to dull leaf blade is 5 to 12 cm (2 to 4+12 inches) cm long and 2 to 6 cm (1 to 2+12 inches) wide. Near the leaf margins are yellow crystal cells ("cystolites"). The two membranous, deciduous stipules are not fused, lanceolate and 6 to 12 mm (14 to 12 inch) (rarely to 15 mm or 916 inch) long.[8]

 

F. benjamina is monoecious. The inflorescences are spherical to egg-shaped, shiny green, and have a diameter of 1.5 cm (12 inch). In the inflorescences are three types of flowers: male and fertile and sterile female flowers. The scattered, inflorescences, stalked, male flowers have free sepals and a stamen. Many fertile female flowers are sessile and have three or four sepals and an egg-shaped ovary. The more or less lateral style ends in an enlarged scar.

 

The ripe figs (collective fruit) are orange-red and have a diameter of 2.0 to 2.5 cm (34 to 1 inch).
