Ficus with white trunks, such as the Ficus Benjamina ‘Wintergreen,’ is a popular indoor tree with a distinctive appearance. Here are some general care tips for keeping your Ficus with white trunk healthy:
-
Light: Ficus with white trunks 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 with white trunk 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 with white trunk 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 with white trunk prefer warm temperatures between 60-75°F (16-24°C). Protect your tree from extreme temperatures, such as frost or heat waves.
-
Humidity: Ficus with white trunk 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 with white trunk every 2-3 months with a balanced fertilizer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates.
-
Pruning: Ficus with white trunk benefit from occasional pruning to maintain their shape and size. Trim back new growth to encourage branching and fuller foliage.
-
Repotting: Repot your Ficus with white trunk every 2-3 years, or when it outgrows its current pot. Use a slightly larger pot and fresh soil.
With proper care, your Ficus with white trunk should thrive and grow into a beautiful, healthy plant. However, it's important to note that Ficus trees can be challenging to care for, and may require more specialized care compared to other types of indoor plants.
