Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’, also known as the Banyan Fig ‘Audrey’, is a sophisticated tropical tree celebrated for its velvety green leaves, pale trunk, and graceful, architectural form. This special twisted stem version adds an artistic, sculptural element to an already regal plant, creating a living statement piece that exudes refinement and organic elegance.

Native to India and Pakistan, Ficus benghalensis is the national tree of India and revered for its strength and longevity. The ‘Audrey’ cultivar, with its more compact habit and soft-textured foliage, has become a beloved interior design favourite. Its elliptical, deep-green leaves are accented by creamy-white veins and velvety undersides, giving them a subtle matte finish that contrasts beautifully with the smooth, light-grey bark. The twisted stem form adds movement and texture, showcasing skilled horticultural artistry and a true sense of botanical luxury.

Elegant, commanding, and full of character, Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’ (Twisted Stem) is more than a plant — it’s a natural sculpture that brings tropical sophistication and serenity to any curated space.


Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’ (Twisted Stem) – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate a few hours of gentle morning or late-afternoon sun. Provide consistent brightness to maintain healthy growth and leaf colour. Avoid harsh midday sunlight, which can scorch the velvety leaves, and deep shade, which may cause sparse foliage or slowed growth.

Watering

Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Ficus species prefer consistency — alternate extremes of drought and overwatering can lead to leaf drop. During winter, reduce watering slightly, allowing the soil to dry more between waterings. Always ensure the pot has adequate drainage.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers warmth between 20–30 °C; avoid temperatures below 15 °C and cold draughts.

  • Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity (40–60%) but thrives in moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally or use a humidifier to maintain supple leaves and prevent dryness.

Soil and Potting

Use a well-draining, fertile mix, such as compost combined with perlite and pine bark. This ensures airflow while retaining gentle moisture. The twisted stem form should be grown in a stable, weighted planter to support its structure as it matures. Repot every 2–3 years in spring, refreshing the soil to encourage healthy root development.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a diluted, balanced fertiliser or a foliage-specific formula. Regular feeding promotes lush growth and vibrant leaf colour. Stop feeding in autumn and winter when growth slows.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune lightly to maintain shape and encourage a fuller canopy. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves at the base. Clean the leaves gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and highlight their velvety texture. Rotate the pot occasionally to maintain an even canopy and balanced growth around the twisted trunk.

Growth and Maturity

A moderate grower, Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’ can reach 1.5–2.5 metres indoors when given adequate light and care. The twisted stem form provides additional visual interest, creating a dynamic, sculptural silhouette. Over time, the pale trunk thickens, and the canopy expands into a dense, tree-like form that feels both grounding and elegant.

Common Issues

  • Yellow leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Leaf drop: Low light, cold exposure, or sudden environmental change.

  • Brown tips: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Pests: Occasionally scale or thrips; treat promptly with neem oil or insecticidal soap.


Background and Benefits

Ficus benghalensis is a sacred tree in Indian culture, symbolising eternal life due to its ability to form new trunks and aerial roots that expand over time. The ‘Audrey’ cultivar, however, is a more compact and manageable version suited for indoor growth — maintaining the grandeur of its wild ancestor while thriving in bright, indoor environments.

The twisted stem form showcases expert horticultural training, where multiple young stems are intertwined as they grow, producing a sculptural spiral trunk that adds unique movement and artistry. Beyond its visual impact, Ficus ‘Audrey’ is also an effective air-purifying plant, filtering toxins and improving air quality while enhancing a sense of calm and biophilic beauty.

    Cool, Comfortable, and Worth Every Penny!
    Color: Light Gray, Size: Standard
    I’m honestly impressed with these pillowcases! From the first night, I could feel the difference—they stay noticeably cool, which is perfect if you tend to sleep hot like I do. The fabric feels silky smooth against the skin without being slippery, and it’s really gentle on both my hair and face. I’ve also noticed I wake up less sweaty and more comfortable overall. They fit my pillows well and don’t slip off during the night, which is a big plus. After washing, they held up great—no fading, shrinking, or loss of softness. If you’re looking for pillowcases that actually help keep you cool and comfortable through the night, these are definitely worth it. I’ll be buying more!

    Extremely cold, silky, gentle on hair
    Color: White, Size: Queen
    This was so cold when I removed it from the package that at first I thought it would be too cold. It was as if it had been in a freezer. I really like how silky it is on my face. (I can't stand a rough feeling pillowcase.) It is also gentle on my curly hair. The pillowcase can warm up from being slept on, but a shift of just a few inches gets back to wonderful cold. I highly recommend this as an extremely cool, silky smooth fabric. These are much colder than my very expensive miracle sheets.

    Freaking Amazing 🤩
    I never write reviews but these pillow cases absolutely deserve one!!! These are absolutely amazing! So soft and cool! I sweat so bad every night!! I wake up and my hair, shirt and pillow are drenched!!! I slipped these bad boys on as soon as they came in, and let me tell you! They were cold to the touch, I woke up this morning and I wasn’t sweating! I thought $20 something dollars was a little expensive for 2 pillow cases but was totally worth it! We love love love them!🩷🩷🩷Hubby approved😉

    Stretchy Material and Cooling Fabric
    Color: Light Gray, Size: Standard, Color: Light Gray, Size: Standard
    Material: is very stretchy and cools well. It has a zipper which is good because the fabric is very soft and slippery and if it didn’t have a zipper the pillow would not stay in the case. Durability: zipper works great and material is easy to clean. Color: I have the gray and my daughter has the pink. Both colors as advertised. Value: Good value and I got what I expected.

    Very soft and cool.
    Color: Dark Gray, Size: Queen
    Very comfortable and cooling. But after a couple of washes the stitching starts to unravel.
