The creeping fig is also known as the climbing fig which is primarily grown outdoors as a climbing vine. However, the ficus pumila is also grown as an ornamental house plant, successfully indoors.

The creeping fig is an evergreen climbing species which you might have seen crawling up the walls of large mansions or a quaint house in the country. Indoors they’re best grown in a hanging basket, or given something to attach to and climb.

How it looks and displaying: The heart shaped leaves on the ficus pumila grow to approximatively 1 inch long and along a wiry wooden like stem. You can keep these very small in a normal sized plant pot, in a hanging basket, or a larger container where the stems and leaves can hang over the sides. If you would like to be more creative you can allow them to climb a moss stick or provide them with a home made structure they can climb.

Care level: The F. pumila is very easy to grow and maintain (if anything it's hard to stop them growing), but it does need to be pruned to keep it at a size suitable for the place it resides indoors. The good news you can prune these as much as you like, which is best done in spring.

Temperature: The pumila is a tough plant and grows well in temperatures from 55 - 75°F (13 - 24°C (can be higher or lower and survive).
Light: Avoid direct sunlight and provide a brightly lit setting. It will also tolerate low lighting conditions.
Soil: Most well draining and aerated potting soil mixes will suffice.
