Cultivation Advice

Where there is a lot of light! Indoors next to a large south-facing bay window, the ideal would be veranda or greenhouse style, avoid putting it next to the radiator, possibility of putting it outside from spring to autumn in full sun !

It needs a substrate that is always moist. Water your ficus tree regularly while allowing the root ball to dry out slightly between waterings to avoid excess water. Watering should be done on a regular basis. In hot weather, it's every day ! Don't hesitate to mist the foliage for a long time when it's hot.

To do it right : water the entire root ball up to the roots, the water will drain away through the holes under the pot or bathe the tree in water (drenching) for a few minutes. We do not recommend putting a cup or container underneath your pot as the water will stagnate and can cause root rot. (Too much water = asphyxiation).

Every 2/3 years in spring when the buds swell and new leaves appear. In the nursery, we use agricultural potting soil which is composed of black peat peat, eco-aged, topsoil, horse manure, pozzolana

In early spring, remove unnecessary branches. During the growing season, prune to 5 to 7 leaves.

Blue Tomato/Flower Fertilizer NPK 12 12 17. You can use some and put a handful (small or large depending on the size of the pot) on the substrate from May to October, every 2 months alternating chemical/organic.
