Hello,

I live in Phoenix and my backyard has this huge flowerless shrub that I can't seem to identify. It would be great if you could help!

Thank you!

How huge? Can you take a photo of the entire plant including branches and stems. Also, have you lived there long enough to see the plant through all the seasons?

It's pretty huge! We have only lived here about 5 months, so we haven't seen it through all of the seasons, but it's been green since July. It also has not flowered at all. Thank you!

I don't know what it is but...is there any chance it could be some kind of fig tree?

Alyogyne looks good. Once the plant flowers you will be in for a treat. Hurray!
