Management brief
Ficus microcarpa
Moraceae · 17 Hawaiian specimens · 1915–2021
What this means for control work
Fruit has been recorded Jul to Aug. Treat before it, not during.
This window comes from specimens collected outside Hawaiʻi — 17 of them — because only 0 Hawaiian specimens carry a scored date. It shows the shape of the species’ cycle. It is not a Hawaiian calendar, and it should not be used as one for scheduling.
Birds carry this one, so a treated site is not a closed problem — seed arrives from wherever else the species is fruiting. Timing matters at landscape scale, not just on your parcel.
