About: Ficus Microcarpa

Ficus Microcarpa, also known as the Chinese Banyan or Ginseng Ficus, is a popular indoor tree belonging to the Ficus genus. It is characterized by its glossy, deep green leaves and an interesting trunk structure that often develops aerial roots. This plant is native to Southeast Asia and is valued for its ornamental beauty and air-purifying qualities. 

Care for Ficus Microcarpa:

1. Light: This Plant prefers bright, indirect light. Place it near a window where it can receive plenty of filtered sunlight. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can lead to leaf burn.

2. Watering: Water your Gingseng Ficus thoroughly when the top inch of the soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure that excess water drains away to prevent waterlogging, as this can cause root rot. Reduce watering during the winter months when growth slows down.

3. Temperature: Chinese Bayan prefers temperatures between 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Protect it from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations, as this can cause stress to the plant.

4. Humidity: Maintain moderate to high humidity levels around your Ficus Microcarpa plant. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves regularly or placing a humidifier nearby, especially during the dry winter months.

5. Soil: Plant your Ficus in well-draining potting mix. A mix of peat moss, perlite, and sand works well to ensure good drainage. Repot your plant every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and provide additional space for root growth.
