Meanie:

Yes, they are beautiful wide trees with a huge circumference. It can spread to around 100 feet/ 32 meters wide in time.
In the true wet tropics they can cover acres with its large aerial roots.

Ficus benjamina - Weeping fig is probably the most commonly grown houseplant in the U.S. It will usually only grow to 4 - 8 feet tall (sometimes taller) as a houseplant though.
