Say hello to the chic cousin of the famous fiddle leaf fig! The Ficus Audrey (Ficus benghalensis) brings timeless charm with its velvety, sage-green leaves and soft, pale trunks. Native to India, this beauty is revered as the country’s national tree and symbolizes longevity and strength. Unlike its diva fiddle leaf relative, Audrey is the laid-back, low-maintenance sibling you've been dreaming of.
🪴 CARE INSTRUCTIONS
✨ Light: Bright, indirect sunlight keeps Audrey glowing. Tolerates some gentle morning sun but avoid harsh afternoon rays.
✨ Water: Let the top 2-3 inches of soil dry out between waterings. Overwatering? No thanks. She prefers a moderate sip, not a soak.
✨ Humidity: Average home humidity is fine, but a little extra love (hello, pebble tray!) is always welcome.
✨ Feeding: A balanced liquid fertilizer once a month in spring & summer will have her feeling fancy.
🐾 PET FRIENDLINESS
⚠️ Not pet-friendly! Ficus Audrey’s sap can irritate pets if chewed or touched. Best to keep this beauty on a pedestal—literally.
