🌱 Care Instructions

📍 Placement

Ficus Microcarpa thrives in warm and humid climates.

• Indoors: Place near a bright window with indirect or mild direct sunlight.

• Outdoors: Morning sunlight is ideal. Avoid harsh afternoon sun that may scorch leaves and dry aerial roots.

• Humidity: High humidity encourages healthy aerial root development. A water tray nearby during summer helps maintain moisture levels.

💧 Watering

Keep the soil evenly moist but never waterlogged.

• Water when the top layer of soil feels dry.

• Frequency depends on climate and placement.

• Ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot.

🌿 Fertilizing

Feed regularly during the growing season with a balanced NPK fertilizer (20-20-20).
Organic fertilizers such as vermicompost or well-decomposed cow dung manure support strong root growth and a lush canopy.

✂ Pruning & Maintenance

Regular pruning maintains the Banyan-style canopy and aerial root balance.

• Trim excess branches and oversized leaves.

• Shape carefully to preserve its mature silhouette.

• Proper pruning encourages dense foliage and refined structure.

🪴 Repotting

Repot every 2–3 years or when roots outgrow the pot.

Use a well-draining soil mix containing sand, soil, lava granules, coco husk, bio compost, and vermi compost. Proper aeration keeps roots healthy and disease-free.
