Ficus benjamina - Weeping Fig

$3499 USD
6" Growers Pot

Ficus benjamina 

The Weeping Fig is one of the most poplar small indoor trees featuring arching branches and long pointed leaves. This species is notorious for losing leaves when its growing space or conditions are changed.  In late summer and fall, the loss of up to 20 percent of the leaves is quite natural and not a cause for alarm.  Misting the tree regularly will help to minimize leaf drop and it's best to withhold fertilizer until it stops losing leaves.  New leaves should start appearing in the spring.

Ficus Basic Care: Easy to Medium

  • Water: Let the soil almost completely dry out between watering. These plants appreciate a consistent watering schedule, as they can be pretty dramatic when neglected.
  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light.
  • Soil/Drainage: Best in a loose, well-draining tropical mix.
  • Temperature/Humidity: Prefers warm conditions and should be kept away from drafty areas. While higher humidity is ideal, it can adapt to normal household humidity levels.

Order & Shipping Info:
-Plants ship in a grower's pot, fully rooted.
-We ship every Monday and Tuesday (excluding holidays) to avoid weekend delays.
-Our photos show what you can expect, but each plant is unique and may look slightly different upon arrival.
-Minor damage during shipping is entirely normal and should be expected, especially in extreme summer or winter temperatures. Don’t worry—damaged foliage can be trimmed away and will not affect the plant's root system or overall health.
-Hold off on watering if the soil is still moist, and wait 2-4 weeks before repotting or fertilizing. This patience will help your plant adjust smoothly without going into shock.
