A popular plant in Japan, its paper-like leaves have an affinity in a place where everything and anything can be made beautiful with paper.
Leaves as large as a fiddle-leaf fig, but an opaqueness which catches and filters the light delicately.

Decorative pot not included. The plant will be delivered in a plastic nursery pot.
For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also 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.
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 on a rounded pot.
