THE STARLIGHT FICUS

Go for the Starlight Ficus for a touch of natural color to your indoor space. We love this striking variegated form of the weeping fig that has simple glossy, green leaves ringed with a decorative cream band.

Ficus is commonly called Weeping Fig or simply Ficus and originates from India, Southeast Asia and Australia. These small trees grow where there are dry and wet seasons so it is natural for this tree to drop its leaves when the air may be too dry. In nature, these trees grow underneath larger trees, thus making them more tolerable of various light conditions.

Starlight prefers very bright indirect light making it an ideal houseplant for sunny indoor spaces. Keep it evenly moist, but not wet or dry. Trim as needed. Left alone, the Starlight Ficus can reach up to 6 feet tall. Remember, this easy-to-grow plant makes an ideal touch of green for the home, office, apartment, dorm or den.
