How to Care for Bambino Fiddle Leaf Fig Tree

Be sure to read our planting instructions to ensure a healthy and happy plant for years to come!

How often do I water a Little Leaf Fiddle Fig?

How often do I water a Little Leaf Fiddle Fig?

The Little Leaf Fiddle Leaf Fig should be watered thoroughly but infrequently, as the plants like to dry out occasionally between watering. The easiest way to tell if a plant needs to be watered is by the weight of the container. If the container is very heavy and the foliage is upright, chances are good the plant doesn't need water, whereas a light container and limp foliage means the plant needs some water. Make sure there is ample drainage so that your Little Leaved Fiddle never sits in a pool of water for too long - that can cause root rot.

How do I plant a Little Fiddle Leaf Tree?

How do I plant a Little Fiddle Leaf Tree?

We suggest planting your newly purchased Fiddle Leaf Fig into a container that is slightly larger (a few inches wider and taller). Use a well draining potting mix, and be sure to disturb the roots when transplanting. The most common cause of plant death after transplanting is planting the new plant to deep. That is why we do not recommend planting in a hole any deeper than the soil line of the plant in the pot.

How much light does a Little Leaf Fig Tree require?

How much light does a Little Leaf Fig Tree require?

Fiddle Leaf Figs of all varieties thrive in bright indirect light. If kept outdoors in summer or grow zones 10 or 11, Fiddle Leaf Figs can handle dappled shade to full sun, but will need to be transitioned. Move them outside to give them a summer vacation or because they're hardy. Little Fiddle Leaf Figs should be moved into full shade outdoors initially, then put into a couple hours of morning light with shade the rest of the time for a few days. Gradually increase the amount of sun the plant receives every couple of days until the plant receives the maximum amount of light that it will receive in its new location. This process should take a few weeks, and the leaves will not turn brown or get sunburned if transitioned gradually. Repeat in the other direction to bring them back inside once the summer heat begins to cool off.

What type of fertilizer is best for a Little Fiddle Leaf Fig?

What type of fertilizer is best for a Little Fiddle Leaf Fig?

Indoor houseplant fertilizers fall into two groups: water soluble, liquid quick release, and granular, slow release fertilizers. Jack's Classic Indoor plant food works well as a powder, quick release fertilizer that is mixed with water to quickly provide nutrients to a plant that has been in a container for an extended time. On the other hand, Biotone Starter or Osmocote Indoor/Outdoor is an option as a granular, slow release fertilizer that can be applied while potting and planting. Any type of fertilizer offers nutrients that help plants with the transition to a new environment. Little leaf Fiddle Leaf Figs like consistency in watering, light, and fertilizing. They should be kept on a regular schedule to receive food routinely.
