For no fuss or mess you can place the plant in its growing pot (the pot it arrives in) inside a decorative one. This allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.

For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot. Here is how we measure and list pot sizes:

Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in a rounded pot.

We recommend using a liner to protect your decorative pot and prevent leaking (whether placing the nursery pot inside or repotting directly into the decorative pot).

Top Tip

As the bush ages it often drops lower leaves to make way for new shoots up top.

Ficus Lyrata

Fig Bush

A column of green gorgeousness, this bush form of the famous fiddle-leaf is great as a single plant, but can also create an indoor screen, to break-up spaces. The bush form is available in a double stem, and a triple stem, offering choice of density and height. This Ficus Lyrata evergreen bush also available in tree form gives a beautiful foil to any room.

Need to know

This ficus, like most others is happiest situated in indirect bright light. It is happy in most rooms, with a minimum temperature of 12°C. It does not like draughts and this can cause the leaves to discolour.

Allow the top two inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Apply a general purpose houseplant feed like in the summer months. Reduce watering in winter.

The leaves benefit from a damp wipe from time to time to remove dust and facilitate light transmission.

The best space & place

This ficus, like most others is happiest situated in indirect bright light. It is happy in most rooms, with a minimum temperature of 12°C. It does not like draughts and this can cause the leaves to discolour.

When to water & feed

Allow the top two inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Apply a general purpose houseplant feed like in the summer months. Reduce watering in winter.

Need to know

The leaves benefit from a damp wipe from time to time to remove dust, facilitate more light transmission, and keep looking glossy. They can lose leaves when settling in but they are soon replaced. Read our 'Ficus Lyrata' Care Guide.

Pollutant Absorption Credentials

The Fiddle Leaf Fig has been shown to help remove benzene, formaldehyde and ammonia. Ammonia is often used in cleaning products because it's good at breaking down grease, and because it because it evaporates quickly, leaving surfaces streak-free. Unfortunately, that also means it ends up in the air.

Decorative pot not included, available to buy here. The plant will be delivered in a plastic nursery pot.
