Ficus Prestige Plant

Ficus Prestige Plant Care Tips:

1. Light Requirements: Place your Ficus Prestige Plant in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. It thrives in well-lit rooms but can tolerate moderate light conditions.
2. Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, especially in humid climates. Reduce watering in winter months but don’t let the soil completely dry out.
3. Soil: Use well-draining, peat-based soil with added perlite or sand to enhance drainage. A slightly acidic to neutral pH soil is ideal for optimal growth.
4. Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity levels. Mist the leaves occasionally or use a humidity tray to maintain moisture, especially in dry Indian climates.
5. Fertilization: Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce feeding in fall and winter to once every 6-8 weeks.
6. Low Maintenance: Ficus Prestige Plant is relatively low maintenance once established. Regular pruning to shape and remove dead leaves is beneficial. Monitor for pests like spider mites, especially in drier conditions.
7. Air Purification: Known for its air-purifying qualities, the Ficus Prestige helps clean indoor air by removing pollutants and toxins, promoting a healthier environment.
8. Non-Toxic: Safe for pets such as cats and dogs. However, ingestion may cause mild stomach upset, so it’s best to keep it out of reach of curious pets.
9. Pet Friendly: Generally considered pet-friendly due to its non-toxic nature. Still, monitor pets around the plant and discourage chewing or ingestion.
