New growth often emerges in warmer bronze tones before settling into a deep green, adding gentle variation while keeping the overall expression minimal. Its slim form works well in Scandinavian interiors where you want soft, vertical structure rather than wide, spreading foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePlant care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright, indirect light is ideal.

Its narrow footprint makes it practical beside a sofa, near a bookcase, in a hallway with natural light, or as a green accent in a home office. If positioned in lower light, keep watering slightly more restrained and rotate the pot occasionally for even growth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCare tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFicus plants prefer stability. Choose a spot and avoid frequent moving, which can cause temporary leaf drop. Keep the soil evenly moist but never saturated, especially in winter when the plant uses less water. Wipe the leaves with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and help the plant photosynthesise efficiently. If you repot, choose a pot with drainage holes and a well-draining indoor plant mix; sizing up one pot size is usually sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plant is shipped directly from a Netherlands grower to ensure freshness and plant health during transport.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePlant information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Live indoor plant \/ houseplant\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ficus binnendijkii ‘Amstel King’\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePot size:\u003c\/strong\u003e P17 (Ø17 cm) nursery pot\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApprox. height:\u003c\/strong\u003e ↕ 75 cm (measured including pot)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MEERgroothandel Planten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53040811901271,"sku":"29825","price":83.85,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/4552\/4311\/files\/3418f12a-abd4-40d9-8914-acaca8674e3b_1200x1200_fill.jpg?v=1773817334","url":"https:\/\/emirelle.com\/products\/ficus-binnendijkii-amstel-king-p17-o17cm-%e2%86%9575cm","provider":"EMIRELLE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
