Distribution and Habitat
Ficus rubiginosa occurs from north Queensland southwards along the eastern coastline of Australia to the vicinity of Bega on the south coast of New South Wales. It is found on the edges of rainforest and gullies and rocky hillsides. It is found on limestone outcrops in Kanangra-Boyd National Park. Fig seedlings often arise in cracks in stone in cliffs and rock faces in natural environments, and in brickwork on buildings and elsewhere in the urban environment.

Famous quotes containing the words distribution and/or habitat:
“The man who pretends that the distribution of income in this country reflects the distribution of ability or character is an ignoramus. The man who says that it could by any possible political device be made to do so is an unpractical visionary. But the man who says that it ought to do so is something worse than an ignoramous and more disastrous than a visionary: he is, in the profoundest Scriptural sense of the word, a fool.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Nature is the mother and the habitat of man, even if sometimes a stepmother and an unfriendly home.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
