Ficus Lyrata Bambino (PBR) | 12cm Pot

Lush evergreen specimen. Position: bright but indirect light Soil: good potting compost Rate of growth: average Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 35cm (+ or – 10% including the pot) Pot cover: choose a 14cm pot cover to give a good fit over the pot The stunning fiddle-shaped leaves of this lush evergreen houseplant are large, leathery, and glossy rich green. ‘Bambino’, as its name suggests, is a delightful baby fiddle-leaf fig and retains all of the wonderful, playful characteristics of the grown-up version – it’s just a bit more compact! Ideal for smaller spaces and filtering unwanted pollutants from the air. Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from. Home care: These are easy plants to care for as long as you are careful with the watering. Only water once the compost is dry to the touch, and make sure that the plant isn’t left standing in water. You can mist the leaves to increase the humidity – and occasionally wash the leaves with a damp sponge or cloth to keep them glossy. Try to maintain an average temperature no lower than 12°C in the winter, and avoid any sudden drops in the temperature and cold draughts.
