Know before you buy
This plant requires bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant yellow and green variegation. Place it near a window with sheer curtains or in a spot that receives plenty of natural light without the sun's harsh, direct rays hitting the leaves.
When kept indoors, the Ficus Altissima typically reaches a mature height of 6 to 8 feet. It arrives at a height of 34 to 42 inches, so you can expect steady, medium-paced growth as it settles into your space.
Not at all. The Ficus Altissima is rated as easy-care, making it a great choice for those new to indoor trees. It requires moderate watering and thrives as long as it is kept in a warm spot with consistent light.
It arrives pre-potted in premium soil within an 11.8-inch Ecopots container. It is ready for immediate display right out of the box and includes a matching saucer to protect your surfaces from water.
Yes, the striking variegation depends on adequate light. If the plant is kept in a low-light environment, the leaves may lose their yellow hues and turn a solid, darker green.
