Ficus rumphii, the mock bodh tree, is a large tropical fig tree native to South and Southeast Asia, related to the banyan and peepul. It is grown outdoors in warm, wet climates rather than as a houseplant, and needs space for its wide canopy.
Ficus rumphii is a banyan fig species in the family Moraceae. The species can be found in India, Nepal, Bangladesh, southern China (Yunnan), Indo-China, and Peninsular Malaysia, Java, the Lesser Sunda Islands, Sulawesi, and Maluku in Malesia. In Vietnam it may be called lâm vồ or đa mít.
The species was described by Carl Ludwig Blume in 1825. No subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.
