Product Description

The Ficus Lyrata originally comes from the tropical rainforests of West Africa, where it grows into an impressive evergreen tree with large leaves.

Care & tips for the Ficus Lyrata Branched - 220 cm

The Ficus Lyrata Branched is a popular houseplant with an elegant, branched trunk and large, violin-shaped leaves. It settles happily enough indoors, but it can react badly to being moved. If it starts growing towards the light, turn it slowly and regularly. Some leaf drop after a move is normal and simply part of how it adjusts.

How much water does the Ficus Lyrata Branched - 220 cm need?

Keep the soil slightly moist, but avoid a soggy root ball. Water regularly with small amounts, a little more often in summer than in winter. Mist the leaves now and then to keep them free of dust and the plant in good health.

How much light does the Ficus Lyrata Branched - 220 cm need?

The Ficus Lyrata loves plenty of light and does best close to a window. Direct sun is fine, as long as it isn't all day long. If the plant stops growing or drops leaves, that's usually a sign it isn't getting enough light.

Is the Ficus Lyrata Branched - 220 cm toxic?

Yes, the Ficus Lyrata is mildly toxic. Contact with the sap can cause skin irritation and swallowing it is best avoided, so take extra care around pets and children.

How is my Ficus Lyrata Branched - 220 cm with pot Bordo New Egg shipped?

This large houseplant is shipped together with the stylish Bordo New Egg pot by special pallet transport. The plant comes straight from the nursery and is carefully packed so that both plant and pot arrive home in top condition. Thanks to this safe shipping method you can count on a trouble-free, tidy delivery of the complete set.

Frequently asked questions about the Ficus Lyrata

How often should I water my Ficus Lyrata?

The Ficus Lyrata likes evenly moist soil, but not wet feet. Stick your finger a couple of centimetres into the soil: if it's dry, go ahead and water. On average, that works out to about once or twice a week, depending on the season and the temperature in your home.

In winter, your fiddle leaf fig needs less water, since growth slows down a bit. Never overwater in one go, and make sure excess water can drain away properly — if the plant sits in water for too long, root rot is quick to follow.

Can the Ficus Lyrata sit in direct sunlight?

The Ficus Lyrata (or fiddle leaf fig) loves plenty of light, preferably indirect. A spot right next to an east- or west-facing window is ideal. Harsh, blazing afternoon sun can scorch the large leaves, leaving unsightly brown or white patches.

If your plant is too dark, it grows more slowly and new leaves get smaller. So look for a balance: a bright spot without direct sun during the hottest part of the day gives the best result.

Why does my Ficus Lyrata get brown leaf tips or drop its leaves?

Brown leaf tips or edges are usually caused by an inconsistent watering pattern: too dry, too wet, or constantly switching between the two. Dry heating air and drafts can also be a cause. Check the soil first and adjust your watering rhythm before changing anything else.

Leaf drop is often a reaction to change — a new spot, a draughty room or a sudden temperature shift. Don't panic: most fiddle leaf figs recover on their own within a few weeks, as long as you leave them alone afterwards.

Is the Ficus Lyrata toxic to pets?

Yes, the Ficus Lyrata is mildly toxic if ingested. The milky sap in the stems and leaves can irritate the skin, mouth and stomach of both pets and children.

So keep the plant out of reach of curious cats, dogs or young children, and wash your hands after pruning. If you notice drooling, vomiting or skin irritation in your pet, contact your vet.

How do I make sure there's enough humidity?

The Ficus Lyrata originally comes from the humid tropical forests of West Africa, so it appreciates a bit of extra humidity, especially in winter when the heating dries out the air.

Mist the leaves occasionally with a plant mister, or place a bowl of water near the plant. A moisture meter helps you keep a close eye on exactly how humid the air and soil are.

How and when do I repot or propagate my Ficus Lyrata?

Repot your fiddle leaf fig as soon as the roots start growing through the drainage holes, or when the pot really becomes too tight — usually once every 1 to 2 years, preferably in spring. Choose a pot that's only a few centimetres bigger and use light, well-draining potting soil.

To propagate, take a cutting of about 10-15 cm with one or two leaves and let it root in water or moist potting soil. Got some patience? Then a whole new Ficus Lyrata will grow from it.

How fast does a Ficus Lyrata grow and how big does it get?

With the right care, the Ficus Lyrata grows steadily, at about 20 to 40 centimetres per year. Indoors, the plant can eventually reach a comfortable 2 to 3 metres tall.

Want to slow the growth down a bit or make it bushier? Prune back the top shoot in spring — this encourages the plant to form new side shoots for a fuller silhouette.
