Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'
Bengal Fig, Indian Banyan

Not a very well known type of fig, large leaves a little like rubber plant have wonderfully elegant pale green veins that show up beautifully against the dark green of the leaf.
Not difficult to look after and is a great choice if you are looking for something a little more unusual.

In the wild throughout India these trees can reach hectares in width and are one on the largest trees in the world! Dont worry though it will take a while at home.

Site: Bright indirect light to bright shade, will take a small amount of direct sun.

Temp: Average warmth.

Water: Quite regularly in the growing season but leave to dry out slightly first. Rarely over the winter months. Benefits from occasional misting.

Feeding: A liquid feed every month or so.

Tip: the main reason for rapid leaf drop and/or wilting is overwatering. Only water if dry and if it starts to wilt when damp try to resist the urge to nurse it back!
