Plant care
POSITION
Ficus Bonsai seem to thrive in most conditions. They will handle full sun as long as the water is kept up to them and they will handle shade if you are careful not to over water. Ideal positioning is full sun to semi shade.

TEMPERATURE
Place it either indoors or outdoors, in relatively constant conditions – an ideal temperature is between 18 and 26 degrees Celsius.

WATER
The Ficus should be watered normally, which means it should be given water generously whenever the soil gets slightly dry. The Bonsai Ficus can tolerate occasional over- or under-watering.

NUTRIENTS
Add a hand full of slow release fertilizer when re potting in spring. Fertilise with fish emulsion, seasol or other organic liquid fertilizer every 14 to 30 days during the growing season.

RE-POTTING
Every year at the beginning of spring for best results. Can be re potted at any time of year with good after care.

PRUNING
Pinching out of vigorous growing tips during spring and summer and pruning hard at re potting time, will encourage strong back growth. Trimming of the larger leaves throughout the year helps miniaturize leaves

ORIGIN
Ficus is native in the range from Sri Lanka to India, Taiwan, the Malay Archipelago, the Ryukyu Islands, Australia, and New Caledonia.

PET FRIENDLINESS
Ficus Ginseng Bonsai plants are poisonous for pets, it can be especially dangerous if they eat the leaves.
