A strangling fig starts life in the canopy of its host tree. It then extends its aerial roots downwards which progressively surround the host’s trunk,
which cannot grow and eventually dies. The fig also shades the host by extending its canopy above that of the host tree.
Ficus stricta is a rare lowland rainforest species. Its figs ripen to a purplish red and attract many feeding birds.
