Ficus benjamina 'Green Kinky'
weeping fig
A new dwarf form of this traditional favourite, this compact, weeping plant has masses of slender, pointed, glossy green leaves that are perfect for softening any room. Part of the ornamental fig family, it has been adorning our homes since the Victorian times, but is just as popular now in a contemporary space as it was back then.

How to care for Ficus benjamina Green Kinky:
It doesn't have many needs - as long as you find a bright spot away from direct sunlight, not close to a heat source like a radiator and away from any draughts, it will usually be happy. Once it has the right place try not to move it as they don't like being moved around. Water with tepid water when the soil is just starting to dry out on the surface, but don't let it dry out completely. During the winter you can reduce the watering. Mist the leaves in the summer months, and feed with a liquid fertiliser during the growing season.
