But, of course, that this is enough for home suitable plants to be able to give them a piece of my heart.

From the family fikus

ficus benjamina care in the homeIn this article we will talk about one of the most striking and beautiful foliage houseplants – about the ficus. Cultivars or varieties of it there are many. Recognized as the most popular ficus Benjamin, care at home which is quite simple and straightforward. The plant is a tree-shaped spreading shrub. His crown may be lush and sprawling, with small glossy leaves growing on the ends of the thin branches of the cuttings. Optionally, you can control the growth of stem and crown, selecting the optimum parameters. If you want to be in your home long grew ficus Benjamin, care at home will be:

  1. Sit down, you can plant from cuttings taken from adult trees just in the formation of its dimensions. It is possible to do at any time of the year, putting the process in water on the windowsill.
  2. That you feel comfortable ficus Benjamin, care at home requires first and foremost the abundant heat and light. The leaves of the trees original painting – dark green, leathery, with a light yellow or white spots. Because the plant looks very elegant. If you have the kind with the solid color of the foliage, the light should be diffused, otherwise in summer, the sun will burn. The leaves begin to turn yellow, fall off, the tree will lose its attractive appearance, will start to hurt.
  3. tropical house plantsThose who keep the ficus Benjamin, home care must also focus on proper watering. Even in the hot period, the flower does not like excess moisture. It is enough accumulates it during watering, the leaves leathery skin retain water, preventing rapid evaporation. So between watering is necessary to sustain such a period that the ground is well dried. The humidification system is as follows: the water flows abundantly to all  om is well soaked. After some time, from the pan the excess drained. And in between the plant should be sprayed from a spray. The ground during the procedure is better to cover to avoid excessive moisture. And the leaves, on the contrary, are freed from dust, gleam, the wood can breathe «full chest”, which is clearly seen on the photo of home plants.
  4. Ficus – flower-loving. It should be protected from drafts and put in place in the room and in winter the ambient temperature does not fall below +14. Otherwise the leaves will fall off, and pot will remain bare trunk.
  5. Those who grow tropical house plants (ficus, by the way, applies to them too) should know one more subtlety. All these flowers do not like too dry  air. So when it begins to work the Central heating, near vases set humidifiers.
  6. photo of house plantsAs for utensils and soil, then transplant the plant should once in a few years. He has a well developed root system, so the pots should be roomy, three-dimensional. Filling them with soil, take care of good drainage pebbles, expanded clay, broken bricks. The land should consist of equal parts of sand, humus, peat and turf. If the ficus is old enough share of sod land should be greater than the other. In the summer, during rapid growth, once every two weeks treat ficus fertilizers-mineral and organic matter.
  7. If you want your tree well branched, cut the side shoots. And the last thing I want to say – be attentive, caring, and any plant will feel you comfortable and at ease.
