African Fig Tree

Light :  Lots of bright indirect light. These lovelies could tolerate some direct morning sun too. He’s also shade tolerant too. 

Water:  when the top of the soil starts to dry out these guys need a drink.They like their soil moist, but not wet. They’ll be thirstier in summer, so check the soil often.

Humidity: Your African Fig Tree will be ok in your normal household humidity, but if it’s looking dusty or a bit crispy then give it a little mist.

Temperature: Your warm household temperature will be fine for this guy. Don’t sit him by a draught and make sure he doesn’t get too cold. 

Food:  During the growing season (spring/summer) you can fertilise with weak fertiliser once or twice a month. 

Toxicity: toxic if ingested – best kept out of reach of nibblers
