Sandpaper Fig (Ficus Coronata)

The delicious Sandpaper Fig which amazingly grows on its trunk, as well as on its stems: a phenomenon known as “Cauliflory”. 

Local Aboriginal people traditionally used the leaves to smooth and polish weaponry, the bark to make string, and the fruit for delicious bush tucker.

The fruit can also be dried or cooked into cakes, pies, biscuits, jellies, jams or sauces.
