Ficus is a ground-plantable tree in Windrose. Each Ficus Sapling consumes one Ficus Seeds and yields Wood plus a replacement seed at every harvest. Ficus trees do not use Seedbeds and can be planted directly on open ground, making them a supplement to Palm for sustainable Wood farming at a base.
Wild ficus trees populate jungle and foothill transition zones alongside other tree clusters. Because the harvest cycle is identical to Palms and Shrubs (one seed in, one seed out plus a material), a small planted grove of Ficus trees behaves like a quiet, low-maintenance Wood engine once seeded.
Ficus Sapling is the plantable form of Ficus. It grows on the open ground rather than in a Seedbed for Plants, so it does not compete with Seedbed slots at a base. It matures in 1h 10m of real-time growth, then yields the outputs listed in the harvest table below. Replanting is self-sustaining: every harvest refunds at least one seed.
Planting requirements for open-ground placement. The ground variant can be clustered densely in an outdoor grove because it does not consume Seedbed slots.

Ficus is grown for its Wood output, the same general-purpose building material that Palm and Shrub provide. Wood underpins early base construction, crafting stations, furniture, and ship parts, so a steady supply is one of the most useful things a base can produce.

Wild seed source: Wild ficus trees drop Ficus Seeds on felling or harvest.
Ficus Saplings are Tier 1 (starter), so the only prerequisite for farming them is a stash of Ficus Seeds.
Because Ficus yields Wood rather than a unique material, it is interchangeable with Palm for Wood farming. Pick whichever seed you encounter in greater quantity on a given island.
Felling wild Coastal Jungle vegetation can also return Banana Seeds, so clearing ground for a Ficus grove often stocks early food crops at the same time.
Lay out a tight grid of Ficus and Palm near your base entrance so a single walk-through tops up your Wood stock between projects.
Reserve Seedbed slots for food and alchemy crops; let ground trees like Ficus handle bulk Wood since they cost no soil.
