The Sandpaper Fig is a fig with rough sandpapery leaves. The tree has a dark brown trunk and ovate or elliptical leaves. The fruit is oval and about 1.5 cm long.
The branches and leaves of this small tree are densely hairy and rough. The round figs are also hairy, turning purple purple-black when mature, ripening in January through to June.
The tasty fig is best when ripe and with the hairy outer skin removed. Native figs form part of the diet of many groups of Aboriginal people throughout mainland Australia. All figs are edible but some taste much better than others. Some figs are eaten raw, while others are pounded into a paste and mixed with water and honey.
