Ficus retusa
''Ficus retusa'', the ''Cuban-laurel'' (junior synonym of ''Ficus microcarpa''), is a species of evergreen woody plant in the fig genus, native to the Malay Archipelago and Malesia floristic region.
==Description==
''Ficus retusa'' is a rapidly growing, rounded, broad-headed, evergreen shrub or tree that can reach or more in height with an equal spread. The smooth, light grey trunk is quite striking, can grow to around in diameter, and it firmly supports the massively spreading canopy. The largest known specimen is "Auntie Sarah's Banyan" at the Menehune Botanical Gardens near Nawiliwili, Kauai, Hawai'i which is in height, in crown spread, with over one thousand aerial trunks.〔http://archives.starbulletin.com/1999/05/17/news/story6.html〕 〔http://thegardenisland.com/news/article_e6a3e76e-4f87-5d5e-a55e-a321a581dff5.html〕 〔http://archives.starbulletin.com/2000/08/05/news/story2.html〕 〔http://archives.starbulletin.com/2004/03/03/news/story18.html〕 The F. retusa with the thickest trunk is also in Hawai'i, at Keaau Village, Puna District, on the Big Island. Its main trunk is thick at breast height. It is also in limb spread.〔Lorna C. Littlecott, "Hawaii First", AMERICAN FORESTS Vol.75 # 2 (February 1969) p. 61〕
The glossy, dark green, leathery leaves are densely clothed on large, somewhat weeping branches and are usually infested with Cuban laurel thrips. New growth, produced all year long, is a light rose to chartreuse color, giving the tree a lovely two-toned effect.
