A Note on Size

The 20cm nursery pot refers to the diameter of the pot the plant is growing in. This plant is currently approximately 45cm tall, measured from the top of the soil. Individual plants can vary slightly in height, shape and fullness.

Plant Care

Ficus Black Knight prefers a bright, stable position and can take some time to settle after being moved. Try to avoid frequently changing its location or exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.

Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between watering, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet.

Wipe the leaves occasionally to remove dust and keep the dark foliage looking glossy.
