Add a touch of timeless sophistication to your space with the gorgeous Ficus Benjamina 'Variegata'. This lovely broadleaf evergreen tree is a true showstopper, boasting pointed, glossy oval leaves beautifully variegated with shades of deep green and rich cream. Whether you want to brighten up a stark indoor corner or elevate your outdoor patio area, this resillient plant adapts wonderfully to both roles. Designed by nature to be versatile, the Variegated Weeping Fig responds beautifully to pruning and can easily be clipped and shaped into any size. This is the perfect choice for creating a striking ornamental feature.
Benjamina has medium water requirements and loves a spot in bright, indirect light. Only water the soil when it has completely dried out and do not leave this plant in standing water.
The sharply pointed tips on these leaves are actually a built-in rainforest feature called a "drip tip". In the wild, they act like miniature water slides, funneling heavy rain off the leaves as quickly as possible to keep the plant dry and prevent fungal growth.
