Fig tree (Ficus carica) - Prirodoslovna i grafička škola Rijeka, Croatia -

Hello!

My name is Dolores Dobrinjkic. I am a GLOBE teacher at Natural Sciences and Graphics Arts school in Rijeka (Prirodoslovna i grafička škola Rijeka), Croatia. For 2023 autumn phenology campaign students will continue observation of the fig tree from previous campaigns.
The tree is located in the park in front of the school. Thing to note is it that the fig tree is quite young and overshadowed by another tree. However, the branch we are observing is facing south and is exposed to plenty of sunlight.
GPS coordinates: N 45°20'13" E 14°25'32"
Altitude: 61 m
Latin name of the tree species: Ficus carica

We started observations on 26th September 2023. All leaves were predominantly green, color 5GY 3/2. Today, 4th October 2023, the color of the leaves remains mostly unchanged.

Below is the photo of the fig taken with GrowApp application.
