Care & tips for the Ficus Altissima - 100cm
Caring for the Ficus Altissima tree is hardly rocket science. Do make sure you know the right spot and the right care, though, so you can enjoy this plant for a long time.
How much water does the Ficus Altissima - 100cm need?
The Ficus Altissima likes slightly moist soil, but take care not to give it too much water. Water can linger around the roots and cause root rot. So feel the soil first each time by digging two fingers deep into it. Still damp down there? Then it's better to wait before watering again. Has the plant been repotted? Then always use a moisture meter!
How much light does the Ficus Altissima - 100cm need?
The Ficus Altissima likes a bright spot. That's where the plant looks its best. Try to avoid long hours of direct sunlight, which can get too hot on the leaves. If the Ficus Altissima stands somewhere too dark, it will let you know by stopping making new leaves or by dropping the ones it has. Move it to a brighter spot to help it recover.
Is the Ficus Altissima - 100cm toxic?
Yes, the sap released when you prune the Ficus is mildly toxic and can irritate the skin. So keep the plant at a safe distance from small children and pets.
