6″ Ficus

The Ficus is a timeless houseplant favorite, celebrated for its glossy foliage and elegant growth habit. Whether it’s the classic weeping fig or a bold rubber tree, this plant brings a clean, sculptural vibe to any indoor space. Known for being resilient with the right care, a 6″ Ficus is perfect for adding greenery to desks, shelves, or small corners.

🌿 Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct morning sun but avoid intense afternoon rays, which can scorch the leaves. Low light can cause leaf drop.

🌿 Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A blend that includes perlite or coarse sand helps ensure proper aeration and prevents soggy roots.

🌿 Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Ficus plants prefer a consistent routine—avoid overwatering or letting the soil dry out completely for long periods, as this can lead to leaf drop.

🌿 Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer at half strength. Hold off on fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows down.
