Rusty Leaf Fig, botanical name Ficus rubiginosa, is an excellent evergreen tree that tolerates salt spray conditions, making it a great choice for a beach home. It is common along Southern California coastal areas from San Diego to San Clement and Malibu, as well as inland. Native to Eastern Australia, this good-looking specimen can grow into a medium to large tree with a crown that can provide a generous amount of shade during those hot and sunny days.

This fast grower is drought tolerant once established and thrives in sun or partial shade environments. It is a great choice for families, where everyone is sure to appreciate the benefits of this tree. Its interesting, open branching makes it a great tree for climbing, hanging a tree swing or simply gazing up at the dense foliage. Its thick gray trunk and bark create a nice color contrast with the green, glossy leaves. Homeowners may want to use landscape lighting to display the interesting features of this tree well into the evening.

Feel free to plant this shade tree for use in a tropical themed landscape. Once established, little to no maintenance is required. The Rusty Leaf Fig makes an attractive focal point tree or can be used to block unwanted views. If you are looking to create more shade, this is the right tree for that. In fact, when planted in a proper location near the side of a home, a Rusty Leaf Fig tree might help cool off a room or two and lower your utility bill!

    Planted these on our back patio in large pots and they look so good. They give a nice cozy feel to the area and add some great texture to the area.
