Introduction:

Ficus Umbellata is a tropical houseplant. This specific variety is known for their leaf shape and vibrant green colors. Ficus Umbellata is very similar to a Fiddle Leaf Fig Tree (Ficus Lyrata), and care is the same. To care for these plants, keep their soil moist by gently watering a couple times a week.

Being in the fig (ficus) family, the Umbellata is of African origin but has popularity in Japanese culture as a houseplant.

The Ficus Umbellata loves bright light, warm temperatures, and can go a while without water.

Bright indirect light is ideal for it. Place it next to a east or west-facing window.
