Origin: Malaysia.
Height and Growth Rate: Probable maximum indoor height 2m. Moderate to fast growing depending upon conditions.
Toxicity: Considered poisonous, therefore keep away from children and animals.
Light: Ficus triangularis prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some light shade. Direct sunlight may scorch the leaves.
Water: Water when the soil starts to become slightly dry at the top. Keep the soil moist at all times, but do not over water as this will cause leaf drop.
Temperature: Ideal temperatures are 16-24°C. Avoid cold draughts.
Humidity: No specific requirements, although the occasional misting wouldn't go amiss.
Feed: Apply a weak dose of a fertiliser once or twice a month during the growing season.
Care tips: Trim to maintain shape, but be aware that sticky latex will ooze from the ends of the cut stems. This can be an irritant, therefore wash your hands if any comes into contact with your skin. Red spots on the undersides of leaves may occur and do not indicate the plant is unhealthy. These spots are anthocyanin pigmentation that help to protect the plant against sunlight. It is the same pigmentation that turns certain tree foliage red during autumn. A change in location or lower light levels can also trigger this pigmentation on new foliage. When anthocyanin converts into chlorophyll on younger leaves, the foliage then turns green.
Air Purifying: This plant filters airborne toxins and is part of our clean air plant collection.
