Ficus Benjamina Starlight

Care mode

Generally easy but to care for but loves the extra attention. Secret to success is not to over-water the plant. Enjoying a bright room with some direct sunlight remember to keep the leaves dust free by wiping them regularly with our Leaf Shine. Trim the brown leaves to encourage new growth. Rotate the plant every week as the leaves bend toward the light and this plant looks best with an even dispaly of leaves. Fertilise in warmer months.

Feeding your indoor plants

To get the best out of your indoor plants, you will need to feed them some food. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food will provide all the nutrients they need to grow more leaves and help them stay strong. When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies). Sometimes it’s ok to be a helicopter parent – respond to your plant’s needs. To keep the dust off your beautiful indoor plant leaves use The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine. Moral of the story, if it is growing new leaves then it will need more water and food!
