Beringin (Ficus benjamina and some other species, tribal ara-araan or Moraceae) are very familiar with indigenous cultures of Indonesia. These large tree-shaped plants are often considered sacred and protect the local population. The offerings are often given under a banyan tree that is old and large because it is considered a place of magical power gathered. Some people think the place around the banyan tree is a "haunted" place and needs to be shunned.
The banyan, also called waringin or (somewhat mistaken) fig (ki ara, ki means "tree"), is known as garden plants and ornamental plants. Breeders have developed a banyan leaf (variegata) that is popular as a decorative plant room. Beringin is also often used as a bonsai object.
