Care & tips for the Ficus Lyrata bambino - 40 cm
The Ficus Lyrata bambino is a compact, sturdy houseplant that's relatively easy to care for. It's sensitive to change, so choose a fixed spot and don't move it too often. Turn the plant a little now and then so it grows nice and straight. This plant grows more slowly than the regular Ficus Lyrata and keeps its compact shape.
How much water does the Ficus Lyrata bambino - 40 cm need?
The Ficus Lyrata bambino's potting soil can stay slightly moist, but the plant doesn't like wet roots. Let the top layer of soil dry out a little before you water again. In winter the plant needs less water than in summer.
How much light does the Ficus Lyrata bambino - 40 cm need?
The Ficus Lyrata bambino prefers a bright spot with plenty of indirect daylight. Direct sunlight can damage the leaves, so it's best avoided. With too little light, growth slows and new leaves may fail to appear.
Is the Ficus Lyrata bambino - 40 cm toxic?
The Ficus Lyrata bambino is mildly toxic if ingested. The plant's sap can also irritate the skin, so take care around children and pets.
