Care Instructions for Ficus Pumila

Sunlight Requirements:
Ficus Pumila, also known as the Creeping Fig, thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. It prefers some morning sun but should be protected from harsh, direct afternoon sunlight, which can scorch its delicate leaves. Placing it near an east-facing window or in a well-lit room is ideal for its growth.

Water Requirements:
Ficus Pumila enjoys consistently moist soil but not waterlogged conditions. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent water from sitting at the bottom, which can lead to root rot. During the winter months, reduce the watering frequency as the plant’s growth slows down.

Difficulty Level:
Moderate.

Pet Friendliness:
Ficus Pumila is not pet-friendly and can be toxic if ingested by cats or dogs.
