Fig Leaf – No Lobes

Q: I would love to know what is going on here. These three cuttings came from a fig tree but one has no lobes like a normal fig.
A: Very interesting! I think the non-lobed leaves are just a normal variation exhibited on a young fig twig. It will likely start making lobed leaves as it gets older.
