Why You'll Love the Braided Benjamina Ficus

  • Elegant Beauty: Features a slender braided trunk, glossy green leaves, and graceful, arching branches.
  • Easy to Grow: Thrives indoors with minimal care in bright, indirect light.
  • Air-Purifying Presence: Naturally cleans the air, offering a healthier, more peaceful indoor environment.
  • Compact and Versatile: Perfect for smaller indoor spaces such as apartments or offices.
  • Adaptable and Resilient: Thrives in a variety of light conditions and grows beautifully with minimal maintenance.

Easy Care Tips:

Even if you’re new to indoor plants, the Benjamina Ficus is a forgiving, easy-to-care-for companion.

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; tolerates some shade.
  • Water: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry; avoid overwatering.
  • Humidity: Thrives in moderate humidity - occasional misting is beneficial.
  • Pruning: Trim as needed to maintain its shape and fullness.
  • Placement: Avoid cold drafts or sudden temperature changes for best leaf retention.

Occasionally rotate for even growth. If it starts dropping leaves, don’t panic - it’s just adjusting. Give it some time, and it’ll bounce back beautiful as ever.

What’s Not Included (But Helpful)

  • An additional bag of potting soil (for planter use)
  • A saucer tray to catch excess water (for indoor use)
  • Gardening gloves, a watering can, and a wheeled dolly (for rotating larger planters)
