His delicate weeping branches grow glossy green or variegated leaves. Ideal for growing in a well-lit room or conservatory. If he decides to drop his leaves, he's probably in need of a little more light. Ficus benjamina, commonly known as the weeping fig, is native to Asia and Australia.
He does best in bright, sunny conditions, but also tolerates considerable shade. He requires a moderate amount of watering in summer and just enough to keep it from drying out in the winter. He likes his soil gently moist, but never soggy. Regular misting will keep that greenery healthy
