Morton fig?
All figs are non poisonous but most taste like crap. The moreton bay fig falls into the later.


There are some very common but deadly plants out there so NEVER eat anything unless you are positive. The yellow oleander( also known as captian cook or cockfruit) will cause heart failure from eating one flower. The Indian licorice vine has a pretty seed. One seed is more than enough to kill a human.Some rain forrest fruits can leave you permantly blind.All grasses are edible. Most seaweeds are edible unless they taste to yukky to eat.
Reply:Yes.





It's fruit is edible in the same way that cardboard is edible. You can eat the fruit and it won't have any adverse side effects, however it certainly doesn't have the flavour that the common fig has.
