Care Instructions

🪴 General care: Moderate

  • Ficus Benjamina is one of the indoor plants with the most beautiful leaves and is easy to grow. It is able to survive in a variety of conditions and is very difficult to kill so is great for beginners. 

 

  • This plant is very resilient and will quickly bounce back from any neglect. 

 

💦 Water: Moderate

  • Ficus Benjamina likes a moderate amount of water, once or twice per week. Let the top of the soil dry slightly between waterings.

 

  • Water once or twice per week.

 

  • In Summer, if it’s hot and getting a lot of light it will need watering more often, once a week depending on the size of the plant and pot. 

 

☀️ Light: Bright Indirect 

  • Ficus Benjamina likes mostly bright indirect lighting and likes shade too. If it doesn’t receive enough light the leaves will grow smaller and the stems elongated.

 

  • Bright indirect sunlight will encourage faster growth and healthier colourful leaves whereas, not enough sun and the leaves and stems become pale. Too much sun and the leaves can burn and turn brown. 

 

🌱 Growth: Small bushy plant

  • It has small dark green and variegated leaves in a small bush that grows moderately quickly.

 

  • This plant prefers warmer humid areas but this is not necessary, however, they will grow faster in these conditions.
