Hey there, fellow plant lovers!

The Drama Queen of Houseplants: Let's be real – fiddle leaf figs are the drama queens of the plant world, and we love them for it! With their big, glossy leaves and statuesque silhouette, these leafy divas demand attention wherever they go. They're like the A-list celebrities of the plant kingdom – always stealing the spotlight and looking fabulous while doing it.
Funny story, when I purchased my first FLF I had the perfect spot picked out for her in my dining room. So I thought! After two days she started drooping and looking sad and I had to move her into my entryway. I kid you not, a few days later she pushed out FOUR new leaves. These diva plants really do dictate where they want to be placed and when they want to be there, and if you listen, you will definitely be rewarded.
A Touch of Tropical Glamour: Dreaming of swaying palm trees and sun-soaked beaches? Bring a taste of the tropics into your home with a fiddle leaf fig. Originating from the lush forests of West Africa, these exotic beauties add a touch of tropical glamour to any space. Just picture yourself lounging in a hammock surrounded by fiddle leaf figs – paradise found!
Care Tips for Your Leafy Diva: Now, let's talk TLC (tender leaf care). As you know, I’m all about plant care! Fiddle leaf figs may be high-maintenance, but they're worth every ounce of effort.
Here's how to keep your leafy diva happy:
Light: Give your fiddle leaf fig plenty of bright, indirect light – think of it as a sunbathing session without the risk of sunburn. Rotate your plant occasionally to ensure even growth and avoid lopsidedness. Don’t be afraid to give it a good shake to stimulate high winds!
Water: Keep your fiddle leaf fig hydrated, but don't drown it! Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, and make sure your pot has good drainage to prevent soggy roots.
Humidity: Fiddle leaf figs love a bit of humidity, so give them a misting or place a humidifier nearby to keep their leaves looking lush and glossy.
Support: As your fiddle leaf fig grows, it may need a little extra support to stand tall and proud. Consider staking or pruning to maintain its elegant shape and prevent it from getting too leggy.
Propagation Party: Feeling adventurous? Why not try your hand at fiddle leaf fig propagation? Snip a stem, dip it in rooting hormone, and plant it in a well-draining potting mix. With a little patience and a lot of love, you'll soon have a whole family of fiddle leaf figs to call your own!
