Stable root growth |
During your Ficus Benjamina’s first few days at home, it might experience some initial shedding of leaves. This is a normal adjustment process as the plant acclimates to its new environment. To help it settle in, avoid moving the plant too frequently which can cause stress. Instead, find a suitable spot where the light conditions are ideal and try to maintain a stable environment. For healthy growth, rotate your plant a quarter turn every month. This ensures all sides of the plant receive equal light, promoting uniform growth and preventing the plant from leaning towards the light source. Regularly cleaning the leaves not only keeps your Ficus looking fresh but also improves its ability to photosynthesize efficiently.
No, they prefer bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight can lead to leaf scorch, especially in hotter climates.
Not particularly. They require consistent watering and light conditions but are quite forgiving and adaptable to various indoor environments.
