Care Guide

Light

The Ficus benjamina plant thrives in medium to bright, indirect or filtered light. Low light conditions should be avoided as it can cause this plant to lose its variegation. Turn your plant every so often in order to encourage even growth.

Water and Soil

Though it depends greatly on the location and conditions in which your Ficus is being kept, these plants generally like to be watered thoroughly once a week. Allowing the top two inches of soil to dry out between watering’s is typically best. Ficus plants need a well-draining soil, one that is amended with either bark or perlite works well.

Temperature and Humidity

Ficus prefers a warm, room-temperature setting between 60 and 80 degrees F. The normal humidity of an average home works just fine. However, in the winter months provide extra humidity by misting the plant periodically or placing a humidifier in the room. Do not let your Ficus drop below 55 degrees F as it will not do well. While they can survive brief periods of below-freezing temperatures, the must be dormant so make sure your Ficus is tucked in during winter months.
