Ficus radicans (saggitata)

Ficus radicans (or more accurately, Ficus sagitata ). This climbing fig originates from Southeast Asia, where it is very widespread and common. Similar to other strangler figs, it grows its trunks around a host tree and can eventually envelop it completely . Unlike its more aggressive relatives, however, it remains more or less harmless to the host tree. The trunks do not become particularly thick and do not crush the host tree.

Its leaf shape is reminiscent of the classic weeping fig, Ficus benjamini . However, F. sagitata is a climbing plant, not an upright tree. It also looks very chic as a hanging plant in a hanging pot. Very pretty, easy to care for, and fast-growing, especially in summer. It's also very well suited as a terrarium plant for quickly covering a large area of ​​the back wall with greenery!

You will receive a plant with several tendrils in a 12cm round pot.
