    Ficus pandurata is a fig species in the family moraceae. No subspecies are recorded and the native range of this species is southern China and Indo-China.The species can be found in Vietnam: where it may be called sung tì bà.

     Ficus pandurata, commonly referred to as the Fiddle Leaf Fig, is an angiosperm belonging to the Moraceae family, native to the lowland tropical rainforests of West Africa. It exhibits a phanerophyte life form, characterized by large, coriaceous, and broadly ovate leaves which are distinctive for their acuminate tips and pronounced venation. The species thrives in high-light environments, necessitating direct, filtered sunlight for optimal photosynthetic efficiency.Beyond its use as a decorative houseplant, Ficus pandurata also plays a role in improving indoor air quality, as it is capable of absorbing airborne toxins such as formaldehyde and benzene. It is propagated primarily through stem cuttings and air layering, techniques that facilitate the multiplication of healthy specimens for distribution and sale.
