Summer heat care: plants dispatch Mon–Thu so they never sit in a hot depot.

Ficus

Ficus Alii

$99.95

Aloha! I'm the Ficus Alii - 'alii' is Hawaiian for 'king', a title the Hawaiian nursery trade gave me when they made me famous. My long, slender, gently-drooping leaves earn me the nickname Banana Leaf Fig (no relation to bananas - we figs simply enjoy confusing people).

About Ficus Alii

Aloha! I'm the Ficus Alii - 'alii' is Hawaiian for 'king', a title the Hawaiian nursery trade gave me when they made me famous. My long, slender, gently-drooping leaves earn me the nickname Banana Leaf Fig (no relation to bananas - we figs simply enjoy confusing people).

I'm the easy-going royal of the ficus family: far less drama about being moved than my weeping cousins. Bright, indirect light, consistent water when my topsoil dries, and an occasional quarter-turn so I grow evenly. Long live the king.

What you'll get (no surprises):

  • Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 50-80cm tall

I arrive in my grower's nursery pot, ready for a stylish upgrade.

Pets: royal sap, mild irritant - keep me from chewers.

Keep my slender leaves glossy with Leaf Shine and crown me with a Pierre Terrazzo Pot in Black.
