Fig tree was given to my niece in NY, so must be ornamental and common..? Leaves are deeply tri-lobed, fig is green (at first anyway) on long stalk. Thought maybe it was Fiddleleaf fig, but the mature leaves don't appear that way. Anyone have fig pics? Thanks! ~Deb
Need ID on Fig Tree
Do you have photos? How large is the fruit? Sounds like it might be one of those grown for fruit, their leaves are like that.

It definitely is not a Fiddle Leaf Ficus. IF the tree has figs, it is not an ornamental ficus but is a fruit-bearing ficus.
Haven't seen a fig (Ficus) that hasn't produced fruit, unless it still too immature. They're all actually "fruit-bearing".
My Fiddle Leaf Ficus is a 20 year old tree and has never fruited. I also have several 10 year old (or older) Ficus maclellandii ("Narrow-leaf Ficus") that have never fruited. I assume they have never fruited because I cut them back twice a year to keep them at a manageable size. They all have to be brought inside for the winter.
