Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' is a banyan fig grown indoors for its oval to oblong leaves, firm texture, and softly visible pale veins. The foliage emerges fresh green and matures to a deeper tone, giving the plant a calm, substantial look as the woody stems strengthen.

Ficus benghalensis is a tree-forming fig, so Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' responds best to stable warmth, bright filtered light and a root zone that dries gradually after watering.

Leaf and stem traits in Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

  • Leaf finish: Leathery oval to oblong leaves mature deep green with paler veins.
  • Woody framework: Stems gradually firm up and branch, giving the plant a clear small-tree habit indoors.
  • Species background: Belongs to Ficus benghalensis, the banyan fig, native to the Indian Subcontinent.
  • Indoor size: Grown as a houseplant, it stays much smaller than outdoor banyan trees and can be shaped by pruning.

Banyan fig structure in a pot

Ficus benghalensis is a tree species from seasonally dry tropical regions of the Indian Subcontinent. In nature, banyan figs can become massive trees with strong trunks and aerial-root development, while indoor plants are managed as woody container specimens with a much smaller root volume.

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' keeps the species’ firm leaves, latex-bearing stems, and tree-building habit, but in a pot its growth is shaped by light, container size, and pruning. Healthy new leaves depend on a root ball that dries gradually after watering, because saturated indoor substrate reduces oxygen around the roots and often shows first as yellowing or leaf drop.

Care routine for Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

  • Light: Give bright filtered light. The firm leaves and woody stems need enough light to support compact shoot growth and strong leaf colour.
  • Watering: Water deeply after the top layer has dried. Let the full root ball rehydrate, then allow the pot to drain so roots do not sit in stagnant moisture.
  • Substrate: Use a structured, well-aerated houseplant mix with bark, coco chips, perlite, pumice, or similar components. Dense peat-heavy mixes stay wet too long around woody Ficus roots.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C. Cold windowsills, draughts, and sudden night drops can disturb root uptake.
  • Humidity: Normal indoor humidity is often acceptable when watering is steady, but very dry air can affect tender new growth and leaf margins.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Flush the substrate occasionally with plain water if fertiliser salts build up on the surface.
  • Pruning: Cut above a node to maintain height or encourage branching. Pruning is best done while the plant is actively growing and able to seal cuts quickly.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots circle densely or the plant dries unusually fast. A moderate pot increase supports new root growth while keeping watering predictable.

Issue checks for Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

  • Lower leaf drop: Check for a recent move, a temperature dip, or inconsistent watering. Stabilise the position before making further changes.
  • Yellow leaves: Inspect the root ball for wet pockets and poor drainage. Adjust watering only after checking moisture deeper in the pot.
  • Brown edges: Can follow dry spells, low humidity during new growth, or salt build-up. Rebalance watering and reduce feeding until the next healthy flush appears.
  • Small new leaves: Usually points to limited light, restricted roots, or weak feeding during growth. Check light first, then root space and nutrient routine.
  • Scale or mealybug: Inspect along veins, petioles, and woody stems. Remove pests early and repeat checks because Ficus stems offer good hiding places.

Latex and pet safety

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' is not pet-safe. Leaves and stems contain irritating milky latex that can cause mouth and stomach irritation if chewed, and sap may irritate skin or eyes during pruning. Keep it away from pets and small children, and clean tools after cutting.

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' name background

Ficus is the classical Latin name for the fig. The species name benghalensis refers to Bengal in South Asia.

Pale-veined leaves, firm foliage and upright woody growth give Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' its calm banyan-fig shape indoors.

THIS IS A MUST-BUY! If you have a dog--you NEED this ball!
Color: Orange
We have two 18-month-old chocolate Labs (brothers—basically twins with paws). The best time to walk them is early morning or just before dark… which is exactly how we managed to lose approximately 9,472 tennis balls in our cornfield. RIP, brave yellow soldiers. So I went searching for a ball that didn’t just glow—I wanted one that full-on lights up like a tiny dog disco. Enter this LED ball. Game. Changer. Our walks are now way more fun. The ball bounces, flashes, and changes colors like it’s auditioning for a rave. People literally slow their cars as they drive past our field just to watch the light show. I’m not saying we’re local celebrities now… but I’m not not saying that either. And here’s the real magic: when the boys get distracted and abandon the ball (because squirrel), it stays lit so I can actually find it. We also bought a ball launcher from Walmart for about $9, and the LED ball fits perfectly—same size as a tennis ball, just 100x cooler. This ball is waterproof and mostly floats, although I haven’t been brave enough to throw it into the pond or river because I’m positive my dogs would treat that as a full-scale navy search mission and never find it again. It’s easy to charge, and even with 2–3 hours of walking daily, I only have to plug it in every few weeks. We’ve had it for months now and it’s still going strong—super durable. We don’t let them chew on it off-walk (because Labs), but during fetch? It’s a champ. Also—small but hilarious detail—when they catch it, their mouths light up. I have accidentally created glow-in-the-dark dogs. I love this ball so much I’m buying a backup because life without it is not an option. Best dog toy EVER. Whoever invented this deserves a medal, a parade, and a lifelong supply of tennis balls they’ll never lose again. 🐾💡

DISAPPOINTED
Color: Blue
only lasted 3 months after about a dozen uses. The LED core fell out and now it's totally useless. Not worth the cost at all. Disappointed because my dogs really loved them.

Dog is obsessed with this.
The spa works as intended it lights up at night, which is super helpful for short winter days and for when the snow starts to pile up, it illuminates the snow pile that dog dropped it in so I can find it. I haven’t actually charged it yet. It came fully charged and has been in use for over a week without needing a recharge. We only use it on outside excursions together. I keep it in my pocket on walks in case he needs something in his mouth or an incentive to run a little off leash. I like that there are two settings to the light which I didn’t notice when I ordered it. One will shut off after five minutes of inactivity to save battery, which is really convenient so I don’t have to keep on screwing it to turn it on and off or there’s a second setting where the light stays on until you manually turn it off. We have it on the battery saving mode and we have never lost it. Overall, a really fun toy that even the neighbors, tiny dog who can barely pick it up and enjoys. It’s not really soft for like chewing, but that also means he’s not going to destroy it. It is a heavy ball to throw, but not too bad. One of my favorite purchases for this puppy.
