Ficus lyrata, commonly known as the Fiddle Leaf Fig, is a popular indoor plant celebrated for its large, violin-shaped leaves with prominent veins and a glossy, deep green finish. Its striking foliage and tall, upright growth habit make it a bold focal point in homes, offices, or commercial spaces.  

Ficus lyrata thrives in bright, indirect light and benefits from placement near a sunny window. While it can tolerate some direct morning or evening sunlight, harsh midday sun should be avoided to prevent leaf scorch. This plant prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensuring proper drainage is essential.  

To maintain its vibrant foliage, occasional dusting of the leaves is recommended to support healthy photosynthesis. Ficus lyrata prefers stable temperatures and does not respond well to sudden environmental changes. With proper care, this elegant plant can grow several feet tall, making it an excellent choice for adding a touch of sophistication and natural beauty to indoor spaces.
