Know before you buy
This plant requires bright, indirect light to maintain its unique leaf variegation. Placing it near an east or west-facing window is ideal, but be sure to avoid harsh, direct sun which can scorch the leaves.
Watering is generally needed on a weekly basis, but you should always check the soil first. Only water when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch to prevent overwatering.
It is best to wait at least one week before repotting. This allows the plant to acclimate to the light and humidity levels of your home environment after the stress of transit.
No, the Ficus Shivereana is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep this plant in a location that is inaccessible to curious animals.
This plant prefers a stable environment between 65 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep it away from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, or direct heat sources to ensure it stays healthy.
