Ficus 'Little Sunshine'
Ficus lyrata 'Little Sunshine'
Ficus lyrata 'Little Sunshine' is a compact variety of the popular Fiddle Leaf Fig, perfect for smaller spaces or as a striking accent in a bright corner. Its standout feature is its large, heavily veined, violin-shaped leaves that grow upright, creating a bold, architectural look without a bushy growth habit.
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers consistent watering, allowing the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. With its eye-catching foliage and manageable size, 'Little Sunshine' brings the classic beauty of a Fiddle Leaf Fig into homes with limited space.
Ficus Basic Care: Easy/Medium
- Water: Let the soil almost completely dry out between waterings. These plants appreciate a consistent watering schedule, as they can be quite dramatic when neglected.
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light.
- Soil/Drainage: Best in a loose, well-draining tropical mix.
- Temperature/Humidity: Prefers warm conditions and should be kept away from drafty areas. While higher humidity is ideal, it can adapt to normal household humidity levels.
