Ficus neriifolia is a fig. It is commonly used in horticulture as an indoor plant or in bonsai, where its narrow leaves are an attractive attribute.[1]

It is often called "willow-leaved fig", but that name more properly refers to Ficus salicifolia, as per the scientific name (that of F. neriifolia literally means "oleander-leaved fig").
