Plant Bio

Ficus lyrata

While many of our most common houseplants come from the jungles of South America or Southeast Asia, fiddle leaf fig comes from Africa. A full-size tree (capable of reaching 100 feet tall outdoors), it likes lots of warmth and light. Too little light is the most common challenge for this plant indoors, so be sure to give it a bright spot with lots of natural or artificial light (or a mix of both). As is the case with many ficus varieties, it may drop some of its leaves in response to shock—such as being moved from one set of growing conditions to another.

Note: This plant may have some natural degree of toxicity and may cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Additionally, exposure to the sap of this plant may cause discomfort to individuals with a sensitivity to it upon contact. Grown for ornamental purposes and not intended for human or animal consumption.
