Description

Level up your home décor with the outstanding Weeping Fig. Join the wave of the increasingly popular houseplants with this variety, which is one of the best house trees around.

Also known as Ficus benjamina, this plant boasts a notable thick trunk and is supplied wrapped in jute, which is a spread of thread-like fibre, while the glossy green foliage grows on the top of the plant to look bushy, healthy, and overall remarkable.

Over time, the slender branches begin to weep, softening the overall look of the plant and providing a first-class talking point for your home.

Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure this is a proven performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore grow this with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.

Very easy to care for, once you have found the perfect home for your Ficus, you can more or less leave it alone and let it do its 'thing' as long as it's kept safe from excessive draughts.

Supplied as an established plant in a 12cm pot.

Top Tips
Once it has found the right place, don't move your fig around as they dislike disturbance.
Care Information
  • Find a bright spot away from direct sunlight, not close to a radiator or other heat source, and away from draughts.
  • 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 watering.
  • Mist the leaves in the summer months, and feed with a liquid fertiliser during the growing season.
  • If your Ficus benjamina begins to lose its leaves it may be too dry or in a draught. Plunge the pot into a bucket of water for an hour to let it soak and then move in front of a light window.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
