CARE GUIDE

Light: Ficus benjamina prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some light shade. Direct sunlight may scorch the leaves.

Water: Water when the soil starts to become slightly dry at the top. Keep the soil moist at all times, but do not over water as this will cause leaf drop.

Care tips: Insufficient light or incorrect watering can trigger leaf drop. Adjust as necessary and your plant should quickly recover.
