About this Trained Willow Leaf Ficus Bonsai Tree (Ficus Nerifolia/Salisafolia)
Thirty five years of growth stand behind this Ficus nerifolia, also sold as Mexicana ficus, now 16 by 23 by 34 inches and seated in a 13 inch brown round drum mica container. The leaves are long, narrow and light green, hanging in a way that recalls a weeping willow, which is where the common name comes from. Beneath them the trunk is unusually heavy for a tree of this height, which gives the planting a settled, long established look. Willow leaf ficus takes to indoor life readily, asking for good light, warmth and steady watering.
Willow Leaf Ficus bonsai care
This is a living Willow Leaf Ficus (Ficus salicaria). Before you buy, this is what it will ask of you:
- Indoor / outdoor
- Indoor in cold climates; outdoors in zones 10+ or summered outside in warmth
- Light
- Bright light — as much as possible; tolerates lower light better than many figs
- Water
- Moderate to moist — like most figs, water generously when the surface just dries; never let it bone-dry, but it also forgives occasional over/under-watering.
- USDA zones
- 10a–12b outdoors year-round; indoor bonsai in any cooler climate
- #1 cause of death
- Overwatering / root rot (figs are sensitive to constantly wet soil)
Soil, repotting, pruning, seasonal work and the full pest and disease list are in our free Willow Leaf Ficus bonsai care guide.
