Ficus deltoidea, also known as the mistletoe fig, is an epihpyte in its habitat of Southeast Asia but makes a wonderful potted ornamental. Leaf size and shape can vary quite drastically even on a single plant. Leaf shape ranges from triangular to ovate, to sometimes lance-shaped, which is why this plant was once known as Ficus diversifolia. Tiny inedible figs emerge year round and turn red before dropping.
Care of Ficus Deltoidea:
Bright, indirect light. Allow top two inches of soil to dry before watering. Potted plants will reach 4 - 6 ft tall.
Family: Moraceae
This plant is shipped in a 5.5 inch pot.
