5 from 4 customers

Ficus benjamina, commonly known as the Weeping Fig Plant, is a popular indoor plant owing to its fantastic foliage. It has a short trunk that supports a dense canopy of dark green leaves held on pendulous branches. New foliage is light green and often results in the plant having two-tone colouring. Ficus benjamina is an ideal plant for growing indoors and is often used for topiary or bonsai. The Weeping Fig Plant is also well suited to planting around outdoor living areas, maintaining in a container, or for bordering an entrance where the climate allows.
