In the past few days (late March) my 31-year old banana leaf ficus dropped these little pea-sized round green objects. I realized that they came from the tree because I found several of them still attached to the branches. It has never flowered; I don\'t even know if these trees *have* flowers. It has been an indoor tree the entire time. All of the information online that I have been able to find about how these trees reproduce discusses only taking cuttings and getting them to root. Are these seeds? Can I try to germinate them? If they are not, what are they? Does anybody know? Thanks!
