Looks like a fig tree to me, and if it is, some people get itchy from the leaves (hopefully not Adam &Eve, eh?) so be careful until you're sure you're okay with them. Fresh figs are so delicious! Because you're not shipping them, you can wait until they are fully ripe.

Thank you
Looks like a fig tree. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fig
PS: I use the PlantNet app when I go on walks. Fun stuff, the other day I identified valerian growing all over. Great time of the year for plantIDing.
Cheers mate.
Great info thanks!
Looks like a fig tree to me! Hard to say what type until it starts to fruit though, the leaves are very similar. You’re in for a treat though when the crop comes in!
Hell yes!
Thanks mate
I ran the pic through Planta which says it could be a common fig, or ficus carica. I think it looks pretty similar, could be that.
Thanks mate
It’s a tree.
It’s a plant.
Not even a houseplant
