Ficus Benjamina

Ficus Benjamina, commonly known as the weeping fig, is a popular indoor plant renowned for its elegant appearance and glossy, lance-shaped leaves. Native to Southeast Asia and parts of India, it thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers well-draining soil. This tree can grow quite tall, but it can be pruned to maintain a more compact shape. Ficus Benjamina is also appreciated for its air-purifying qualities, making it a great addition to homes and offices. However, it can be sensitive to changes in its environment and may drop leaves if stressed.
