Ficus 'Minima-stellata' care

Among the quieter members of the genus, Ficus 'Minima-stellata' forms a vining spreader and settles quickly indoors.

Give it morning sun with afternoon shade; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. Water when the leaves just begin to soften. Yellowing lower leaves almost always mean too much, not too little.

It is happiest at 55% humidity or higher, potted in rich, moisture-retentive mix. Propagation is straightforward from stem cuttings rooted in water.
