Ficus lyrata Warb., Bot. Jahrb. Syst. 20: 172 1894. (Syn. Ficus pandurata Sander [Illegitimate]); Fiddle Leaf Fig, banjo fig; Ficus lyrata from Arya PG College Campus Panipat garden plant cultiviated for it large size beautifull leaves Pls validate Yes it does appear to be Ficus lyrata. The city of Pune has only one big tree located close to my house on Karve road This has been mentioned by Srikant ji in his book Trees of Pune. Fiddle-Leaf Fig, a native of Tropical Africa, is a large evergreen tree often reaching 40 feet in nature. They have large shiny, fiddle-shaped (or guitar-shaped) green leaves up to 15 inches long. Interestingly, this fig can also be grown as a house-plant in a pot. It can also grow as a free-standing tree on its own, growing up to 12-15 m tall. The leaves are variable in shape, but often with a broad apex and narrow middle, resembling a fiddle; they are up to 45 cm long and 30 cm broad, though usually smaller, with a leathery texture and a wavy margin. The fruit is a green fig 2.5-3 cm diameter.

A street tree in Chennai with wide leaves, glossy, though covered with dust. Id please. Fiddle Leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Fiddle%20Leaf%20Fig.html Yes ... you are right. Similar looking mature leaves also belong to Terminalia bellerica (incidently photograph identified at Flowers of India is not T. bellerica, probably T. muelleri; T. bellerica is correctly identified at our website) and Madhuca longifolia (Mahua), both of whom, have thinner leaves and reddish young leaves (inflorescence is much different in two; Madhuca leaves have more than ten lateral pairs of veins, T. bellerica, only 5-6 pairs) I doesn't look obvious to me, as a visible leaf shows 6 veins only, but I will check it out in more detail. I appreciate that you bother to voice your doubts about the ID on FOI. I think there is some confusion. The leaves of T. bellerica (Baheda) look much similar to Madhuca longifolia (Mahua), from which they can be diiferentiated on the basis of number of veins. In Madhuca leaves have pointed tip, not in T. bellerica. In both leaves are in clusters at tips of branches, and reddish when young. T. muelleri looks much similar to T. arjuna (Arjun) with much narrower leaves narrowed at both ends. I could differentiate them only when seen in fruits. Fruits of T. muelleri are without wings (and look similar to T. bellerica -hence the confusion on Flowers of India website) whereas those of T. arjuna are clearly winged.
