Common names<\/strong>: Ficus Ginseng
Family<\/strong>: Moraceae<\/em>
Origin:<\/strong> Asia
Climate:<\/strong> Tropical
Category<\/strong>: Indoor plant
Approximate height<\/strong>: 35cm
Inner pot diameter (plastic)<\/strong>: 12 cm<\/p>\n
Light<\/strong>: Likes plenty of bright, indirect light, tolerating direct sun early or late in the day.
Temperature<\/strong>: Ideal between 15\u201325\u00b0C. It likes mild environments and appreciates some humidity, but adapts well to most indoor spaces, as long as it\u2019s kept away from draughts and heating\/cooling systems.
Watering<\/strong>: When the substrate starts to dry out, water generously, letting the plastic pot drain excess water well. Don\u2019t let drained water sit in the decorative pot, as it will lead to root rot (one symptom is softening and leaf drop). After watering, you can leave the plant in the decorative pot for a while to absorb water, but then you should discard any water left at the bottom of the decorative pot before placing the plastic pot back inside.
Soil<\/strong>: Well-draining substrate, ideally specific for Bonsai or indoor plants.
Fertilising<\/strong>: Fertilise during the growing season (Mar\u2013Sep) with a fertiliser suitable for green plants.
Pruning<\/strong>: Can be pruned to keep a compact Bonsai shape, and light pruning will help encourage denser growth.
Not pet friendly<\/strong>: Considered toxic to dogs and cats.<\/p>\n
