Another lovely indoor tree from the Fig family. We absolutely love this attractive houseplant!
Ficus deltoidea is a true indoor olive tree with oval to spoon-shaped, leathery, bright green leaves that are lime with a red/greenish-brown edge underneath.
Also known as the Mistletoe Fig, this is the only Ficus species that will produce inedible pea sized fruits, ‘figs’ all year round even when cultivated indoors. Figs turn from dull yellow to orange and red.
We love the Mistletoe Fig for its graceful form and uniquely shaped leaves spreading out like drops of freshness from the stems of the plant. Bring the tropical forest feel to your bathroom - imagine being in a humid rainforest as you soak in fragrant bubbles!
A native to Southeast Asia, this fig makes a very attractive large indoor plant. It’s also very good value, quite a cheap houseplant that gives a lot of value back! Ideal as a house plant gift - surprise someone with a pot of style!
If you decide to give this lovely indoor tree as a houseplant gift, we can include a handwritten card for free with the delivery. Just add your message at the basket stage of checkout and we’ll sort it out for you! And there won’t be any giveaway paperwork either!
It’s an easy going, versatile houseplant that needs minimal attention and will reward you with something wonderful to look at, so it’s not a difficult plant if you don’t know much about caring for houseplants.
