Originating from tropical Africa and Asia, these two Ficuses bring height, structure, and a premium designer look to any indoor space. Perfect for modern South African homes wanting greenery that makes a strong visual impact.

🌱 Tips: Ficus plants dislike being moved too often—relocation can cause leaf drop. Brown spots or patchy edges usually come from inconsistent watering or cold drafts. If leaves yellow, check for overwatering. Trim any damaged leaves to encourage fresh growth. Keep the leaves clean by wiping gently with a damp cloth to help the plant photosynthesise better.
🌤️ Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. They tolerate some soft morning sun but avoid harsh midday rays through windows. Low light will cause leaf drop.
💧 Watering: Water when the top 4–6 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering. Ensure pots have good drainage. Reduce watering slightly in winter.
🌡️ Temperature: Best kept between 18°C – 28°C, typical for South African homes. Keep away from drafts, cold winter windows, and strong heaters.
🍃 Feeding: Use Slow Release Fertilizer 12-Month Fertilizer or apply a balanced, diluted Liquid Fertilizer (e.g., 5:1:4). Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer, and lightly or not at all in autumn and winter.
🐾 Pet Friendly? ❌ NO – Toxic to cats, dogs, and small pets if ingested. Keep out of reach from curious animals and children.
