Tineke Ficus Fig
Care Instructions
- Light: Bright filtered light, ideally next to a window to avoid the plant stretching to find more light - but no direct sunlight.
- Water: Once a week (avoid using chilled water) and mist in between watering to keep the soil moist.
- Temperature: The more humid the better - keep away from air conditioning vents and cold windows in the winter.
- Soil: A rich, well-drained potting mix is best.
- Note: Use a damp soft cloth to wipe leaves and keep them shiny. Also avoid moving your plant around unnecessarily as sudden changes of light and temperature can affect your plant
