The Ficus bonsai thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. It can also tolerate low-light conditions but may lose some foliage. For optimal growth, place it near a south-facing window or under grow lights.
Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering. Allow the top inch of soil to dry before watering again. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while underwatering may cause leaf drop.
Ficus bonsai prefers high humidity. Mist the leaves regularly or place a humidity tray nearby, especially in dry environments.
Regular pruning helps maintain the tree’s shape and encourages growth. Remove large leaves to promote smaller leaf development for a more refined look. Wiring can be used to shape branches, but be cautious as the bark is delicate.
Feed your Ficus bonsai with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce fertilizing during the winter months when growth slows down.
