How to take care of Ficus Benjamina

Sun: Indirect

Ensure your Ficus Benjamina gets several hours of moderate to bright, filtered light each day to keep its leaves looking lush and healthy.

Light: Medium - Bright

They enjoy some direct sun, but they'll also do well in bright, indirect light. It’s best to offer gentle morning sun or a couple of hours of afternoon sun and then filtered light the rest of the day.

Water: When Mostly Dry

Let the top inch of soil dry out before watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so always check moisture levels first.

Humidity: Any

Ficus Benjamina adapts well to average indoor humidity, but it truly flourishes in slightly higher humidity levels.

Pet Friendly: Caution

The milky sap of Ficus Benjamina can be mildly toxic if ingested by pets, so keep it out of reach of curious cats and dogs.

Pro Tip

Rotate your Ficus Benjamina every few weeks for even growth, and prune lightly to maintain its shape.
