Tall Long Leaf Fig

Ficus Alii – The Graceful Long Leaf Fig

The Ficus Alii is a sophisticated indoor tree prized for its slender, deep-green leaves that cascade elegantly, creating a tropical, serene ambiance. Unlike its relatives—the Fiddle Leaf Fig and Ficus Benjamina—this variety is less prone to leaf drop, making it an excellent choice for homes, offices, and commercial spaces.

Why Choose the Ficus Alii?

✔ Air-Purifying & Low Maintenance – A natural air filter that removes toxins while requiring minimal upkeep.
✔ Adaptable to Indoor Spaces – Thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates moderate indoor conditions.
✔ Elegant Foliage – Long, arching leaves create a bamboo-like aesthetic for a refined, tropical look.

Optimal Growing Conditions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
• Water: Water twice a week in warmer months and reduce frequency in winter. Ensure soil is moist but not soggy.
• Humidity: Moderate humidity is ideal; occasional misting can support healthy growth.
• Temperature: Best kept in warm environments (18–24°C), away from drafts, air conditioning, or heating vents.
• Fertilizing: Use an organic houseplant fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring–fall).

Troubleshooting Leaf Drop:

If your Ficus Alii is dropping leaves, check the soil moisture:

• Dry soil? Increase watering.
• Soggy soil? Reduce watering and ensure proper drainage.
• Yellowing leaves with brown tips? Likely overwatering.
• Crispy, brown leaves? Possible underwatering.
