CARE GUIDE:

Light. This plant thrives in well-lit spaces but won't fare well in low-light conditions. Be cautious of direct sunlight, as it may lead to leaf burn and premature leaf drop.

Water. When the soil is 50%-75% dry, ensure thorough watering until excess liquid drains from the pot's bottom. Remember to discard any water collected in the saucer to maintain optimal soil moisture levels.

Humidity. Create a humid atmosphere for your Ficus by placing a humidifier in its vicinity or implementing a pebble tray to enhance moisture levels.

Toxicity. Toxic to pets and humans.

Additional. The Ficus Ginseng is characterized by its gradual growth, requiring repotting only once every 1-3 years. Optimal pruning during the spring and summer seasons allows you to manage its size effectively, minimizing the frequency of repotting.
