The bright green leaves of the Fiddle Leaf Fig plant provide a striking focal point in indoor and outdoor space. Also known as Ficus Lyrata, this tree is native to West Africa and has large leathery leaves which resemble those on an actual fiddle (or violin). This medium-sized indoor tree requires plenty of indirect light so it can flourish indoors. With consistent care, your ficus will grow branches over time for added gracefulness. The fiddle leaf fig is between two to three and a half feet tall, weighing in at about 10 pounds. Requires 4-6 hours of bright indirect light.
