t’s easy to see why this majestic-looking tree is such a highly-coveted plant. It is an evergreen tree that is typically found in tropical environments, but inside it still makes its presence known as it can reach up to six feet tall, depending on how much you like to prune it.
You can breathe easy knowing the Weeping Fig is highly rated for improving air quality indoors, removing toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene, all found in everyday household products.
The Weeping Fig Tree should come with a ‘do not disturb’ sign – moving it around too frequently gives it a shock and prompts it to shed leaves and, as a result, look pretty bare. Position it somewhere that’s away from a draft with some bright light and leave it to settle so it can really thrive.

Jo’s Top Tip
