If you are looking for a true statement plant and are a lover of variegated leaves, then the Ficus Starlight is a true eye-catcher with its dainty almost wistful cream and dusky green mottled foliage and silver-grey branches.
Plant Size
Small: 3.5 inch standard nursery pot.
Light
Medium to bright indirect light.
If they don’t get enough light, they’ll grow slowly and have long stems, giving the plants an unattractive, lanky appearance.
Water
Water ficus when the top inch or so of the potting mix starts to feel dry to the touch. Ficus are quite resilient and survive inconsistent watering, but grow best when they get moisture on a regular basis.
Plant Specific Care
She appreciates evenly moist soil. Avoid extremely wet and/or overly dry conditions.
She also is a lover of humidity and dislikes being moved around or sudden temperature and light changes. If you do happen to move your Ficus Starlight it may drop its leaves but be patient with time and the correct care they will regrow.
Pet-Friendly Plant
No.
