Ficus Danielle - Weeping Fig

The Ficus Danielle, also known as the Weeping Fig, is a classic indoor tree with glossy deep green leaves and an elegant, tree-like shape. Available in 17cm and 23cm nursery pot sizes, it is a great choice when you want to add height and a fuller sense of greenery to your home or office.

Why You’ll Love It

If you're looking for a plant that can fill a corner and make a space feel more established, the Ficus Danielle is a great choice. Its lush canopy and upright growth give it more presence than a smaller tabletop plant, making it particularly suited to living rooms, offices and bright indoor spaces.

A Note on Size

The nursery pot size refers to the diameter of the pot the plant is growing in and does not indicate the overall height of the plant. Individual plants can vary in height, shape and fullness.

Plant Care

Ficus Danielle prefers a consistent environment and can be a little dramatic when moved or exposed to sudden changes in temperature or lighting. Choose a bright position away from cold draughts and try not to move it around too often once it has settled in.

Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between watering, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Avoid both letting the soil dry out completely for long periods and keeping it constantly wet.

Make It Complete

Plants are sold in their nursery pots, with cover pots available separately. For a larger Ficus, choosing a substantial cover pot can help turn it into a real feature piece in your space.

We also have Plant Care options including plant food, neem and water meters to help keep your new plant happy and healthy.
