Cultural
information: We think this plant is a real winner. If
your shopping for a Ficus tree... give this one a try. It is the
newest introduction of the "Ficus of the Future" line.
The little brother of Amstel King.... Amstel Mini has shorter
leaves and a more compact growth habit. If your experienced with
Ficus, you'll appreciate the fact that this plant holds it's
leaves better than the others.
Look for a plant that is planted in a peat moss type soil. The
plants seem to perform better. The care information is the same as
Ficus 'Amstel King'.
