History of the fiddle-leaf fig Ficus Lyrata
The fiddle-leaf fig Ficus Lyrata comes from the tropical rainforests of West Africa and is a popular houseplant thanks to its large, violin-shaped leaves. In the wild it can grow up to 15 metres tall, while as a houseplant it usually stays more compact. Its striking foliage makes it an elegant eye-catcher in living spaces.
Care as a houseplant:
- Light: Bright, indirect light; too little light leads to slow growth.
- Temperature: Ideally 18–25 °C; no cold draughts or sudden temperature fluctuations.
- Humidity: Moderate to high; occasional misting promotes healthy leaves.
- Substrate: Free-draining, humus-rich potting soil with sand or perlite for better aeration.
- Watering: Water moderately; only once the top layer of soil is dry. Be sure to avoid waterlogging.
- Feeding: Every 2–4 weeks during the growing season with a weak liquid fertiliser.
- Special features: An impressive houseplant that, with the right care, grows into an imposing eye-catcher.
