Know before you buy
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a window where it can receive plenty of natural light, but ensure it is shielded from harsh, direct sun rays, which can cause the leaves to scorch.
No, the Ficus ‘Decora Burgundy’ is not pet-safe. It is toxic if ingested, so it is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets.
This variety is not drought-tolerant, so it prefers consistent moisture. Check the top inch of soil regularly and water when it begins to feel dry, ensuring the pot has proper drainage to prevent waterlogging.
The ‘Decora Burgundy’ features an upright growth habit, making it a great choice for corners or spaces where you want a vertical, architectural statement rather than a trailing plant.
While it is relatively easy to care for, it is classified as an intermediate plant. It requires a bit of attention regarding light placement and consistent watering, so it is best suited for those who have a basic understanding of houseplant maintenance.
