Houseplant Cultural information: This is a great new Ficus. This plant is very attractive, has a unique shape, doesn't require much space, and best of all... it's easy to care for. 

Place your "Midnight Mini" near a window that gets bright sunshine for a good part of the day. If your plant is new and in a small container, check for watering 3 times per week until you become accustomed to it's water needs. Allow the soil to dry to the touch on the surface. Applying Gorden's Earth Worm castings to a new plant will help smooth out the acclimation period. Feed your plant monthly while it is growing... other wise feed bi-monthly. Propagation is prohibited.

"Midnight Mini" may be difficult to find. They are available as 4" starter plants thru 10" trees.
