Fiddle Leaf Fig

The Fiddle Leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) is the plant everyone recognizes from design magazines. Tall, sculptural, and worth the small learning curve.

Care Notes

• Light: Lots of bright, indirect light — near a big window is ideal.
• Water: Only when the top 2 inches of soil are dry. Overwatering is the #1 killer.
• Tip: Pick its spot and leave it there — fiddles drop leaves when moved around.
• Pets: Toxic if chewed — keep away from pets.
