Fiddle Leaf Fig 〰️ Care Guide

 POSITION / LIGHT: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Loves a sunny spot with filtered sunlight for a few hours each day. Too little light can cause leaf drop, while direct sunlight may scorch the leaves.

  WATERING: Water when the top 5–7cm of soil feels dry. Typically, this means once a week during the growing season and every 2–3 weeks in winter. Avoid letting the soil completely dry out or become waterlogged.

  TEMPERATURE: Prefers warm, stable temperatures between 18–26°C. Avoid cold drafts, heating vents, or sudden temperature changes, which can cause stress and leaf drop.

  FERTILISER: Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser. Skip feeding in autumn and winter when the plant’s growth slows down.

  GROWTH RATE: Fast when given ideal conditions. Fiddle Leafs can grow up to 1–2 metres indoors, with the potential to reach ceiling height over time. Regular pruning helps maintain a bushier shape.

  PET FRIENDLY? No. Fiddle Leaf Figs are toxic if ingested, so keep them out of reach of pets and small children.
