🌱 How to Care for Alii Fig to Prevent dry air?
💧 How to Water
Water approximately every 9 days, only once the top few centimeters of the soil have dried out. The plant is sensitive to watering (high sensitivity) - both overwatering and prolonged drought lead to yellowing and leaf drop. Ensure good drainage of excess water from the saucer under the pot.
☀️ Lighting
Place in a spot with bright, indirect light, such as near a window without direct sun. A lack of light will slow growth and may cause the canopy to thin, while direct midday sun will burn the leaves.
🪴 Ideal Soil
Use a well-draining potting mix for houseplants, ideally with added perlite or bark for better aeration and drainage. Avoid waterlogging the root ball.
