Ficus Lyrata, Banjo Fig
Fiddle Leaf Figs originate from Western Africa and are a species of flowering plant in the mulberry and fig family Moraceae. Named after their fiddle-shaped leaves, Fiddles grow in lowland tropical forests. While they require plenty of bright, indirect light and moisture, these tropical houseplants are not especially demanding when their growing conditions are right. Rotating your fiddle-leaf fig every few days will help it to grow evenly and not lean towards the light. It’s leaves will also appreciate a dusting with a damp cloth every week or two, to make it shinier and to allow more sunlight to hit the leaves for photosynthesis.
