Growing Guide
Light
Position in bright, indirect light for healthy growth and well-spaced foliage. Avoid prolonged harsh midday sun through glass and try to keep the plant in a consistent location, as frequent moves can cause temporary leaf drop.
Watering
Allow the top few centimetres of compost to dry before watering thoroughly. Drain away excess water and reduce watering during winter when growth naturally slows.
Compost
Use a free-draining houseplant compost in a container with good drainage. Repot only when the roots have filled the pot, increasing the pot size gradually.
Routine Care
Dust the leaves regularly with a soft, damp cloth to keep them clean and maximise light absorption. Rotate the plant every few weeks for balanced growth and avoid placing it near radiators, air conditioning or cold draughts.
Indoor Placement
Ideal for bright living rooms, home offices, conservatories and other naturally well-lit spaces. Its upright growth makes it an excellent floor-standing specimen, bringing structure without occupying excessive floor space.
Why We Love It

Good to Know
Ficus lyrata thrives in stable indoor conditions and may shed a few leaves while adjusting to a new environment or sudden changes in temperature. The milky sap can irritate skin and should be kept away from pets and children.
