Ficus Benjamina Variegated
Ficus Benjamina Variegated
Elegant, airy and secretly local - I'm the Variegated Weeping Fig, and while my species decorates homes worldwide (and serves as the official tree of Bangkok), we also grow wild in northern Australia's monsoon forests. International celebrity, regional roots.
My cascading cream-and-green foliage reads more 'indoor tree' than 'potted plant'. Bright, indirect light keeps the variegation crisp - if I'm going plain green, move me closer to a window. One quirk, honestly disclosed: I dislike being relocated and may drop a few leaves in protest before settling. It's theatre; I recover.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 40-60cm
- X-Large - 250mm nursery pot, approx 60-80cm
Pets: weeping fig sap is an irritant - keep me from chewers.
Keep my canopy gleaming with Leaf Shine and settle me - permanently, please - into a Jardin Terrazzo Pot in White.
🌱 One tree planted with every order.
