Ficus obliqua is naturally found from Indonesia to New Guinea and predominately in Australia growing on the east coast and the adjoining plateaus from Queensland to New South Wales in rainforests. 

It prefers a moist fertile well drained soil in an open to protected sunny position and is frost and drought tender.

The Small-leafed Fig is grown for its habit and is planted in parks or large gardens as a specimen. It is also used in rainforests gardens as an emergent tree and is suitable for coastal or the adjoining mountains, establishing in 3 to 5 years. ID 2325

Note:
Mature strangler figs enclose the remains of the host tree and when the bark is cut it exudes viscous milky sap. The trees habit may be smaller under cultivation and responds to pruning in order to form a spreading habit for shade.
