Fruit-bearing tree whose leaves were reportedly used by Adam and Eve in the Bible to cover themselves (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fig

(Other definitions for fig that I've seen before include "Sticky fruit" , "This leaf may conceal nudity in art" , "Soft sweet fruit of broad-leaved tree" , "Soft pear-shaped fruit" , "This tree's leaf may cover nudity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
