Care for your Fiddle Leaf Fig

 

Fiddle Leaf Fig is a popular and trendy indoor plant that can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your home. Here are some tips on how to care for a Fiddle Leaf Fig:

​

 

Light: Fiddle Leaf Figs require bright, indirect light to thrive. Direct sunlight can burn their leaves, so it's best to keep them near a window with filtered sunlight. Rotate the plant occasionally to ensure all sides receive adequate light.

 

Water: Fiddle Leaf Figs prefer to dry out slightly between waterings, so wait until the top inch of soil is dry before watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so make sure the pot has good drainage and don't let the plant sit in water for too long.

 

Humidity: Fiddle Leaf Figs prefer humid conditions, so misting the leaves occasionally or placing a tray of water near the plant can help increase humidity. Avoid placing the plant in drafty areas or near air conditioning or heating vents.

 

Soil: Fiddle Leaf Figs prefer well-draining soil, so use a well-draining potting mix and make sure the pot has drainage holes.

 

Temperature: Fiddle Leaf Figs prefer temperatures between 60-75°F (16-24°C) and can be sensitive to extreme temperatures. Avoid placing them in drafty areas or near air conditioning or heating vents.

 

Fertilizer: Fiddle Leaf Figs benefit from regular fertilizing during the growing season. Use a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season, and reduce frequency during the winter months.

 

Pruning: Fiddle Leaf Figs can grow quite tall and leggy over time. Regular pruning can help keep them full and bushy. Trim back any leggy stems or yellowing leaves with sharp, clean scissors.

​

Overall, Fiddle Leaf Figs require some attention and care, but can provide a stunning addition to your indoor space with their large, striking leaves. With the right care, they can thrive and become a focal point of your home decor.
