Talk:Banyan

message: I seem to recall there was a notation in "The Banyan in Religion and Myth" of the Banyan's role in Philippine myth. (It is locally known as the balite) I now cannot find that notation nor find its addition in the history section of this article.  I'd like to find a citation so I can put it back. But may I know why it was removed in the first place? I wouldn't want to be wasting my time. Alternativity 13:04, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: The Banyan in Filipino myth

message: I suggest adding the Ficus retusa to this page, since it has also been called a Banyan. However, I don't know too much about biology and so I want to let others decide what to do. Thank you for your help! --Ghormax 21:32, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Simply as a suggestion, I believe there should be a redirect to this page from the title gajumaru tree (as it is known in large areas of Japan and Northeast Asia).  I would do it myself, but computers are my nemesis... sad...

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: Not being familiar with Banyan trees, when I hear that it is a type of fig, my first question is: Does it bear edible fruit?
I'm guessing that since there is no mention, it's at least not an important source of commercial fruit, but does anyone have a clear reference on the fruit or lack there of of the tree?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.202.33.17 (talk) 22:19, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fruit? 

message: The article provides no information on this, which it needs to - and clearly. Tropical only? Subtropical? Hanoi Road (talk) 18:56, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that's because the article covers a subgenus including a number of species, each with fairly broad distribution. Some of the individual species' distributions are mentioned in the Classification section. Collectively very widely distributed, tropical and subtropical. The individual species articles are the place for detailed distributions. Declangi (talk) 21:40, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
