9Greenbox - Fiddle Leafed Fig - 4 Pot

The fiddle-leaf fig, scientifically known as Ficus lyrata, is a native plant to West Africa. With its large, violin-shaped leaves that can grow up to twelve inches long, it adds a striking visual presence to any space. While it is capable of producing flowers and fruits in outdoor settings, it also thrives as an indoor specimen plant.

Being native to the tropics, fiddle-leaf figs prefer warm and humid conditions. This can pose a challenge for home growers as it is difficult to replicate such steamy conditions. Nonetheless, these plants have proven to be resilient and can tolerate less-than-ideal conditions for extended periods of time.

To ensure proper drainage, a mixture of potting soil, bark, and perlite is recommended. It is worth noting, however, that Ficus lyrata is toxic to dogs, cats, and horses if ingested.

Originating from West Africa, this plant has the potential to reach heights of up to 10 feet. It thrives in environments with partial shade. It is important to be aware that the fiddle-leaf fig is a non-GMO plant.
