Lvs. alternate, stalked, thick, penninerved or 3-nerved, entire: fls. dioecious, in globose heads, the peduncles solitary or in pairs and axillary, the male clusters few-fld. and often paniculate, the females on shorter peduncles: fr. oblong, becoming succulent and with the including thickened perianth forming a mulberry-like multiple fruiting body. C. deolbata, Andre1 (Ficus dealbata, Hort.), is described as a very beautiful greenhouse subject, with coriaceous elliptic lvs. 1 ft. long and half as broad, white-silky beneath and deep green above.
