Ficus ‘Pandora’
Ficus benjamina ‘Pandora’
Ficus benjamina ‘Pandora’ is a charming twist on the classic Weeping Fig, featuring glossy green leaves with a distinctive curly shape that gives the plant a whimsical, textured look. Its slender, arching branches create an airy, elegant silhouette that instantly elevates any space.
Young plants are often braided together, forming graceful, structured houseplants that mature into small indoor trees or multi-stemmed shrubs, usually topping out around 6 feet indoors. While primarily deep green, some forms of ‘Pandora’ can display variegation with splashes of creamy white or yellow for added character.
Native to Asia and Australia, the Weeping Fig (Ficus benjamina) is beloved worldwide and even holds the title of official tree of Bangkok. With its unique curly foliage and compact growth, ‘Pandora’ is a standout choice for those who want a plant that’s both elegant and full of personality.
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.
