Plant Care Instructions:
Lighting: Place your Ficus Midnight in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some shade but thrives with a few hours of indirect sunlight each day. Avoid exposing it to harsh, direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Temperature and Humidity: Maintain room temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C). The Ficus Midnight appreciates moderate humidity levels, so consider using a humidity tray, regular misting, or a room humidifier to create an ideal environment.
Watering: Allow the top inch of the soil to dry out before watering your Ficus Midnight. Water thoroughly, ensuring that excess water drains from the pot. Empty the saucer to prevent root rot. During the winter months, reduce the frequency of watering, as the plant's growth slows.
Pruning: Prune your Ficus Midnight as needed to maintain its shape and remove any dead or yellowing leaves. Regular pruning can encourage bushier growth and a healthier appearance.
Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for common indoor plant pests like spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects. Inspect the plant regularly and treat any infestations promptly with suitable control measures.
By providing proper care and attention, your Ficus Midnight will continue to showcase its captivating dark foliage and add a touch of elegance to your indoor space.
