Light: near a bright window, but out of direct midday sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Watering: check the soil every few days and keep it lightly moist, never soggy. Needs a little more attention.
Always let excess water drain out of the pot. Message us on WhatsApp if your plant looks unhappy.
Rounded, almost heart-shaped leaves with wide cream margins make this little ficus stand out on a desk or windowsill. Slow-growing and tidy, it suits small spaces.
It arrives as a single rooted sapling in a small net pot. Plant it net pot and all; the roots grow straight through.
