Heart Ficus ( Ficus Triangularis )

Description

Ficus triangularis, also known as the Triangle Fig, is a striking ornamental plant known for its uniquely shaped, triangular leaves. The glossy green leaves have a smooth texture and are arranged in an attractive pattern on the branches. Some varieties of Ficus triangularis are variegated, featuring leaves with cream or white edges, which adds to their appeal for indoor decor.

Native to tropical regions, this plant is relatively easy to care for and does well indoors with bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but will grow best in a well-lit environment. The plant prefers well-drained soil and moderate watering, allowing the top layer of soil to dry out between waterings. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages bushier growth.

Ficus triangularis is ideal for homes and offices due to its manageable size and ability to purify air, removing common indoor toxins. While the plant is low-maintenance, it can drop leaves if exposed to stress, such as sudden changes in light or watering habits.
