RE: Climb the Walls with Ficus pumila

in #ficus6 years ago

Thank you for an interesting plant, our ficus is grown in indoor conditions and I didn’t even know that it has fruits. In life form, the plant is classified as a liana: the dwarf ficus has a flexible and rapidly growing stem. Stems thin, green with a brownish tinge, very tenacious. In the subtropical climate, where it can grow in open ground, they grow many meters in length, weaving houses, lampposts and tree trunks.

The plant has a creeping shoot and many small leaves on short stalks. Depending on the variety, the plants of this species can have different colors of leaves: with a white border on the edge of the lamina, spots, etc., which gives them a beautiful and unusual appearance.

Ficus reproduces only by vegetative means. To do this, use the cuttings that remain from pruning ficus (pruned preferably in February-March). Cuttings easily take root in water as well as in a moist substrate. You can get ficus seeds only in the greenhouse or in the open field where the plant can bear fruit.
