This seems to depend on the species. Yours appears to be one of the Benjaminas, for which Joakim's statement is more likely to be true.
In any case, even in California, I'd wait till a little later in the season before trying it.
For ficus info, visit
Jerry Meislick's site . If you don't find the info you want, drop him a line, if he doesn't answer you here.
