Plant Care

☀️ Light

💨 Humidity
Enjoys moderate humidity but generally adapts well to normal household conditions.

🌡️ Temperature
Thrives between 18–27°C. Protect from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes.

Pet Friendly?

No. Ficus species can be toxic to cats and dogs if ingested, and their milky sap may cause skin irritation. Keep out of reach of pets and children.

Please Note

Ficus plants can naturally drop some leaves when moved or exposed to changes in light, temperature or watering. This is normal while the plant adjusts to its new environment. Your plant will arrive healthy and carefully packaged, ready to thrive in its new home.
