Useful Information
Plant Bio
Ficus lyrata, otherwise known as Fiddle Leaf Fig, are part of the Moraceae family, 'Ficus' being the Latin for 'Fig'.
F.lyrata have large and leathery leaves which are pandurate (fiddle-shaped), often with wavy margins. Potted young trees usually take a monopodial form, with single non-branching stem; prune growing tip or top the plant from an early age to encourage branching. This 'Bambino' variety will reach up to 1m in the home.
Pot: 12cm
Height: Approximately 30cm tall from base of pot
Ceramic pot not included
Secrets of success
Temperature: Ideally 15-24°C, keep out of draughts and sudden temperature drops.
Light: A bright spot is best.
Watering: Allow soil to dry out slightly between waterings; be mindful of overwatering.
Air Humidity: Average humidity is fine but higher humidity in winter will prevent brown edges on the leaves, this can be achieved by grouping plants together, misting, using a humidifier and placing your plant on a tray of watered pebbles.
Fertilising: Ficus lyrata doesn't have a strong need for fertiliser; during sping and summer, feed once per month.
Potting mix: A well draining mix with perlite and bark.
This plant is toxic, keep out of reach of pets and children.
