30 - 40cm Ficus Ginseng XXL (5 Years Old) 30cm Pot Rubber House Plant
Ficus Ginseng, also known as the Chinese Banyan, is a popular indoor tree with a thick, bulbous trunk and lush foliage. Here are some general care tips for keeping your Ficus Ginseng healthy:
-
Light: Ficus Ginseng trees prefer bright, indirect light. Place your tree near a window that receives plenty of sunlight, but avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves.
-
Watering: Water your Ficus Ginseng tree regularly, but allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. During the winter months, the tree will require less water. It's important not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.
-
Soil: Plant your Ficus Ginseng tree in well-draining soil, such as a mix of potting soil and perlite or sand. The soil should be slightly moist but not waterlogged.
-
Temperature: Ficus Ginseng trees prefer warm temperatures between 60-75°F (16-24°C). Protect your tree from extreme temperatures, such as frost or heat waves.
-
Humidity: Ficus Ginseng trees prefer moderate to high humidity. You can increase humidity by placing a humidifier near the tree, or by misting it regularly.
-
Fertilizer: Fertilize your Ficus Ginseng tree every 2-3 months with a balanced fertilizer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates.
-
Pruning: Ficus Ginseng trees benefit from occasional pruning to maintain their shape and size. Trim back new growth to encourage branching and fuller foliage.
-
Repotting: Repot your Ficus Ginseng tree every 2-3 years, or when it outgrows its current pot. Use a slightly larger pot and fresh soil.
With proper care, your Ficus Ginseng tree should thrive and grow into a beautiful, healthy plant. However, it's important to note that Ficus Ginseng trees can be challenging to care for, and may require more specialized care compared to other types of indoor plants.
