Nicknamed the banana-leaf fig, thanks to its slender green leaves, the Ficus Alii looks different from relatives, the Fiddle Leaf Fig and Rubber Tree, but requires similar care. It does best in bright light with weekly waterings. Sized to ship best, our large Ficus Alii arrives with room to grow as it adapts to your home’s conditions.
Each plant is unique; size and shape fluctuate by season so all measurements are shown as a range
Large plant measures between 26–36" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage
Arrives in 10" diameter grow pot
Large plants benefit from brighter light to help retain their mature foliage
Large plants require less frequent waterings due to their higher volume of soil
If you purchase a large plant with a planter, the planter will ship separately
