Common Name(s): Pot-bellied Ficus
- MEET FICUS GINSENG! Native to Asia and Australia, Ficus 'Ginseng' is a cultivar used extensively in bonsai for its bulbous, thick roots reminiscent of ginseng that rise out of the ground and has small evergreen leaves and is a popular houseplant for its ease of care and elegant growth.
- FICUS PLANT! The Ficus plant grows naturally in lowland tropical forests, it can thrive in a large range of environments. In its natural habitat, this ficus grows to a large and stately tree up to 100ft tall, so indoor growing may require pruning. Although it was determined that Ficus Ginseng is effective at removing common household air toxins formaldehyde and xylene, it is also a source of allergies, especially for people allergic to latex.
- POT_BELLIED FICUS CARE! The plant is not recommended for pet owners. It can thrive in a large range of environments. Place the ficus near a window in a room that gets bright light in the summer with more moderate light in the winter. Water with room-temperature water. This is a tropical tree, so it needs to be indoors where temperatures are 60 to 75 Fahrenheit (15-25 C.)
