Ficus benjamina, commonly known as the Weeping Fig, is one of the most elegant and classic indoor trees, prized for its graceful form, glossy leaves, and air-purifying qualities. A member of the Moraceae family, this tropical species is native to Southeast Asia and northern Australia, where it grows as a large evergreen tree.

Indoors, it’s admired for its arching branches and dense canopy of small, pointed, dark green leaves that gently cascade, creating a soft, flowing silhouette. The slender trunk can be grown straight or braided, adding a decorative and architectural touch. Mature plants can reach impressive heights indoors, yet they can also be pruned into compact, bushy shapes to suit smaller spaces.

Ficus benjamina has been a popular interior tree for decades thanks to its refined look, natural air-filtering abilities, and its adaptability to bright indoor conditions.


Ficus benjamina – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some gentle morning or late-afternoon sun but should be protected from harsh midday rays. Low light can cause sparse growth and leaf drop.

Watering

Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season (spring and summer) but never waterlogged. Reduce watering slightly in winter. Ficus plants dislike sudden changes in watering routine.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers 18–26°C. Avoid cold draughts and sudden temperature changes.

  • Humidity: Average household humidity is fine, though occasional misting helps maintain glossy foliage and prevents leaf tips from drying out.

Soil and Potting

Use a rich, well-draining peat-free compost mixed with perlite or grit for aeration. Repot every 2–3 years in spring or refresh the top layer of soil annually to keep the plant healthy.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a diluted balanced liquid fertiliser. Stop feeding in winter when growth slows.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune in spring or early summer to maintain desired size and shape. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves. Clean the foliage regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust and enhance its natural shine. Rotate the pot occasionally to encourage even growth.

Growth and Maturity

A moderate to fast-growing indoor tree, typically reaching 1–2 metres tall indoors. With proper care and pruning, it can be shaped into an elegant upright tree or dense shrub.

Common Issues

  • Leaf drop: Often caused by sudden changes in light, temperature, or watering habits — usually temporary once the plant adjusts.

  • Yellow leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Brown edges: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Pests: Occasionally spider mites, scale, or mealybugs.

Background and Benefits

Ficus benjamina has long been a favourite in homes, offices, and conservatories due to its timeless beauty and refined tropical charm. It’s also one of NASA’s top-rated air-purifying plants, known to remove common indoor toxins like formaldehyde and benzene. With its elegant canopy and easy-going nature, it brings a touch of calm, greenery, and sophistication to any interior space.

Beating guns - important things to ponder (so they do not beat us!)
Format: Kindle
I recently read an early copy of this book (Feb 2019). Beating Guns presents a thoughtful view of guns in our country. Seems like a good overview of where we are and how we got there. I appreciate that the views are presented by (fellows) that have held guns, so that they are not an abstract concept but a reality to them. I would hope this book helps people see the issues perhaps with a bit more understanding, and that in turn may lead to dialogue between people to arrive at a less antagonistic situation. This topic is complicated; no one book can possibly cover all the angles and options, yet this book and this approach are a reasonable way to keep people thinking about solutions.

Read it. You'll like it.
Format: Kindle
This book is challenging. Mostly because it hurts. It hurts to see statistics. It hurts to see memorials of lives lost that didn't have to be. But for me, it hurts because we are to be kingdom people now and we've failed on the gun front. I'm in the process of taking a rifle that was used in suicide and turning into a tool for life. We need to do that. So buy the book. Read it. Wrestle with it. Then get to turning swords into ploughshares.
