Ficus deltoidea

One of our favorite Ficus species! Native to parts of Southeast Asia, it's triangular foliage has an almost golden hue. The foliage develops black spots on the underside in between it's veining that can be used to help identify if the flowers will be male or female!

Care:

THESE REQUIRE A VERY BRIGHT SPACE. THIS PLANT WILL NOT DO WELL IN LOWER LIGHT.

These need bright indirect light but they can handle 2-3 hours of direct sun if it is morning or evening light. Ficus can go somewhat dry in the soil between thorough waterings. Usually it is best to wait until the soil is about 3/4ths of the way dry from the top. This can usually be between about once week for juvenile Ficus this size, though you will always want to ensure it is dry before watering! When re-potting use a semi-coarse soil that will drain well.
