About the plant:
Ficus Lyrata is a tree-like plant characterized by its large green violin-shaped (lyre-shaped) leaves with a wavy edge and pronounced veining. Ficus Lyrata bambino (in English Dwarf fiddle leaf fig ) is a dwarf cultivar that, unlike the classic Lyrata, saves space and grows smaller (approx. 1 m). It comes from tropical Africa. Ficuses are among the unpretentious, fast-growing indoor plants that contain latex - a white liquid. Ficuses can be shaped and thickened by pruning.

The dwarf Ficus Lyrata Bambino stands out in large spaces with its exotic appearance. It needs support to grow. The lower leaves may drop over time, which is normal for older specimens of this variety.

Light

The plant needs enough diffused light for healthy growth. Avoid direct sunlight, which could burn the leaves. The ideal site is the north and east side near the windows or the west side with fading weak sunlight.

Watering

Water regularly, but always wait for at least the top layer of the substrate to dry. Ficuses do not tolerate overflowing and standing in water. During the winter, water less and beware of cold water, rather use water at room temperature.

Humidity

The plant likes dew on the leaves, which should be frequently wiped from dust with a damp cloth.

Propagation

The easiest way to propagate the plant is by stem cuttings - preferably using a cut top part of the plant with 2-3 leaves, which you can root in water or soil.

Common problems

Overwatering and overwatering, root rot: Most often, you can recognize a ficus that has been overwatered by the fact that its leaves begin to fall, which can also turn yellow or develop brown spots.
Draft: Ficuses are sensitive to temperature changes. You can tell that the plant has suffered a temperature shock by the leaves, which turn brown and fall off.
Change of environment: Ficuses do not tolerate changes (e.g. habitat) well. Therefore, always think carefully about where and when you will move the ficus. The plant reacts to new, unsuitable conditions by shedding leaves.
Burns of the leaves: Beware of direct light, which can burn the leaves of the plant, causing brown spots to form on them.
