Care
General Maintenance: Prune your ficus to keep a consistent shape and form and to encourage a bushier appearance. Do most of your pruning in the winter while the plant is dormant. Repot to a larger pot once roots become visible around the drainage holes of the pot. Transplant the ficus in the early evening to give it a chance to recover from transplanting before receiving sunlight.Temperature: Does well in temperatures between 15° - 30° Celsius.
