Style and Decor
Light Requirements: Ficus thrives in bright and indirect sunlight. They grow best when placed in a spot they like and moved as little as possible. Make sure that you are rotating your plant to ensure that all sides get sufficient directional light.
Locations: The Ficus is a great indoor plant. Indoors, make sure you keep your plant next to a window, not farther than 5 – 7 inches away from the light source. You can also grow your ficus outdoors on hedges.
Styling/decor tip: The glossy, golden-green foliage of the Ficus Prestige can add color and life to your outdoor hedges. Indoors, you can place the plant in your brightly lit living rooms to make it look livelier and add an element of nature to your home.
Plant Essentials
Fertilizer/ feed for the plant: Feed your Ficus a good fertilizer monthly during summers. During winters, the plant growth naturally slows down so no need to fertilize in winters.
Repotting: When repotting, choose a pot 2 to 3 inches larger in diameter than your current pot. The best time to repot your Ficus is during spring.
Propagation: A Ficus can be easily propagated by a leaf or a stem cutting.
Common Problems
1. Why are my Ficus leaves drooping?
A wrong watering schedule or improper light can cause drooping of leaves. Try changing the watering schedule of your plant and also change the position of the plant, move it to a brighter spot.
2. Why are my Ficus leaves curling?
Both under-watering and overwatering can cause curling and yellowing of leaves. Fix your watering schedule to correct this problem
3. Why are my Ficus leaves turning brown and shedding?
If your Ficus is receiving insufficient water the leaves will start turning brown and eventually fall off. Water your ficus more often to prevent the browning of leaves.
