I believe I have found a new ficus species or subspecies. I know this plant is Ficus Aurea, however, Ficus Aurea as well as most other ficus have green veins.
Here is an image of the plant:
Under slight magnification, we can we a clearer design.
I wonder if this is a similar case of another species of ficus. In the southwest of the USA, there is a species called Ficus Palmeri (has green veins). Another species called Ficus Petiolaris, with an almost identical leaf shape, distinguished by one key trait, red veins. So possibly, we have a new subspecies from Ficus Aurea. Additionally, the red color lasts for one to two months. Does anyone have any ideas about this plant?
