Add some extraordinary greenery to your living room! The whimsical shapes of the Ficus microcarpa Ginseng look different depending on which angle you're looking from. The beautiful roots are grown in China before they are pruned into bonsai in the greenhouse. This is done by hand, which gives this robust green specimen its characteristic look — as if you're bringing the wisdom of years into your home.
The ficus grows as a shrub. The potting soil should be kept constantly damp and the leaves should be sprayed with water from time to time so the plant stays looking its best. The plant loves light, but not from the harsh midday sun.
Did you know: in nature, the Ficus grows little figs, which is where the plant's name comes from. 'Microcarpa' actually means 'small fruit'. However, fruit buds do not usually appear when the plant is grown in a living room.
