Description
Easy to grow also known as (Weeping Fig) An elegant plant with slender branches that arch gracefully, with dense glossy dark leaves. Excellent plants for improving air quality indoors. Plant in any good fast draining soil requires a bright room with indirect sunlight requiring good light to thrive. They should be watered regularly during the growing season, spring to summer allowing them to become drier from autumn to winter. Overwatering can cause leaf drop.
Top Tips
Once it has found the right place, don't move your fig around as they dislike disturbance.
Care Information
  • Find a bright spot away from direct sunlight, not close to a radiator or other heat source, and away from draughts.
  • Water with tepid water when the soil is just starting to dry out on the surface, but don't let it dry out completely - during the winter you can reduce watering.
  • Mist the leaves in the summer months, and feed with a liquid fertiliser during the growing season.
  • If your Ficus benjamina begins to lose its leaves it may be too dry or in a draught. Plunge the pot into a bucket of water for an hour to let it soak and then move in front of a light window.
Delivery Information

Our experienced team at the nursery will always carefully package and send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive once you receive and plant them. Although most plants are extremely tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme of weather conditions, we always avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme frosts or heat is forecast. We also avoid dispatching orders over Bank Holiday weekends.

We send most of our orders via a fully tracked courier service with Yodel. We will send you a tracking link as soon as your order has been dispatched.
