Bright, indirect sunshine in the morning and placing it on a windowsill is appreciated. Afternoon sunlight may be too harsh for this plant.
Water only when the surface of the soil is really dry. In winter, Ficus Ginseng will lose leaves and it is important not to overwater during this period.
Well-Drained soil is a must because this plant is sensitive to overwatering.
Ficus Ginseng appreciates warmth with ideal temperatures between 60°F and 75°F. The home’s temperature is perfect for it and there’s no adjustment needed.
