Ficus benjamina 'Spire' - 10" Std./Column

Container Size: 10"

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, especially intense afternoon sun, as it can scorch the leaves. However, some direct morning sunlight can be beneficial.

Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 65-75°F. Avoid sudden temperature changes and drafts.

Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, as Ficus plants are susceptible to root rot.

Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Regular misting or placing the plant near a humidifier can help, especially in dry indoor environments.

Fertilization: Feed every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.

Pruning: Prune as needed to maintain the desired shape and size. Can be trained into a single-trunk tree or a multi-trunk shrub.

Toxicity: Mildly toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
