# Title: Ficus Benjamina Golden King – Green ## Description: Plant description Ficus benjamina ‘Golden King’ is a classic indoor fig with small, pointed leaves edged in soft yellow-green, creating a light, calm expression that suits Scandinavian interiors. This plant is delivered at an approximate height of 95 cm in a Ø21 cm grow pot, paired with the Igmar basket (mand) for an easy, finished look from day one. A discreet support stake guides the central stem as the plant grows. The ‘Golden King’ variety is known for its fine branching and dense foliage. Compared with many broad-leaf houseplants, it offers a more airy silhouette—useful when you want greenery without blocking light in the room. As with most ficus, it appreciates a stable spot and will reward consistent care with steady growth and a fuller crown. Plant care Light requirements: Bright, indirect light is ideal. It tolerates medium light, but growth will be slower and variegation may soften. Avoid harsh midday sun directly on the leaves. Watering routine: Water when the top 2–4 cm of soil feels dry. In most homes this is about once a week in spring/summer, less in winter. Water thoroughly, then let excess drain away—avoid leaving the pot standing in water. Humidity preferences: Average indoor humidity is fine. If the air is very dry (especially in winter), occasional misting or placing the pot near other plants can help reduce leaf drop. Temperature range: Prefers 18–26°C. Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes; avoid temperatures below 15°C. Growth and characteristics Plant species: Ficus benjamina ‘Golden King’ Approx. size at delivery: ↨95 cm Pot size: Ø21 cm Leaf type: Small, glossy leaves with light variegated edges Growth habit: Upright, branching shrub/tree form; trained with a support stake when young Growth speed: Moderate under bright, stable conditions Placement in the home Place this ficus where it receives steady daylight without direct midday sun—near an east- or west-facing window, or a short distance back from a bright south-facing window. It works well in a living room corner, beside a sideboard, or in a hallway with good natural light. Because ficus can react to changes, choose a calm spot away from exterior doors, radiators, and cold window drafts. Care tips Keep the plant evenly oriented by turning it a quarter turn every week or two; this helps it grow straight and prevents leaning toward the light. Feed with a balanced houseplant fertiliser once a month during the growing season (spring to early autumn), and reduce to every 6–8 weeks in winter. Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust and support photosynthesis. If a few leaves drop after moving, give it time—ficus often settles once the environment is stable. Shipping This plant is shipped directly from a Netherlands grower to ensure freshness and plant health during transport.
