Ficus Bambino - Fiddle-Leaf Fig - Gardeners Dream

Water when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch. This typically means watering once every 1-2 weeks, but it depends on your environment.

It thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.

Repot when the plant becomes root-bound, usually every 1-2 years. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one.

Use clean pruning shears to trim off any dead, damaged, or overgrown branches. Prune in the spring or early summer to encourage new growth.

Leaf drop can be caused by many factors. Assess if the plant has been over/under watered, change in light conditions or sudden environment changes.

The Ficus Bambino can be toxic if ingested, so keep it away from pets.

Check if you are overwatering. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Ensure proper lighting.

This can be caused by various factors, including changes in environment, overwatering, or underwatering. Adjust watering and ensure the plant is getting adequate light.

Brown spots can indicate a fungal infection or sunburn. Move the plant to a location with less direct sunlight and improve air circulation.
