Ficus microcarpa ‘Moclame’ — Elegant indoor fig tree
The Ficus microcarpa ‘Moclame’ is a refined indoor fig tree with dense, round, and glossy foliage. More compact than the Ficus benjamina, it charms with its soft and balanced appearance, perfect for bright and elegant interiors.
Its calming presence and deep green foliage make it a decorative plant of choice, capable of transforming a living room corner or an office into a true urban nature bubble.
Exposure & location
The Ficus ‘Moclame’ likes bright light without too harsh direct sun. It tolerates partial shade but prefers a well-lit spot to keep dense and shiny foliage.
- Ideal: living room, entrance, or bright office facing east or west.
- Avoid: drafts and sudden temperature changes.
- Perfect location: near a sheer-curtained window, a few meters from a natural light source.
Verdeia tip: rotating it a quarter turn every two weeks promotes even growth.
Watering & care
- Watering: moderate — let the soil surface dry between waterings.
- Frequency: about every 10 to 12 days depending on light and warmth.
- Misting: light once or twice a week to maintain shiny foliage.
- Care: regularly dust leaves with a soft damp cloth.
- Level: easy to moderate — a robust plant when well established.
In winter, reduce watering: too much water can cause yellowing or leaf drop.
Decor ideas & plant pairings
The Ficus microcarpa ‘Moclame’ is a sculptural and refined plant, ideal for adding volume and a chic green touch to modern interiors.
- Visual look: dense and rounded shape, perfect to structure a room corner.
- To pair with: Zamioculcas, Kentia, or Sansevieria for a texture contrast.
- Ideal pot: planter cover in matte ceramic or textured pot in natural or terracotta tones.
- Where to place it: on the floor or on a low stool, in a room with soft and stable light.
Its elegant silhouette fits well in both contemporary decor and natural bohemian interiors.
Verdeia tips
- Repotting: every 2 to 3 years in spring, when roots become visible.
- Substrate: well-draining potting soil for green plants, with a base of clay pebbles.
- Pruning: possible in spring to maintain a compact shape.
- Drooping leaves: sign of stress (draft, overwatering, or lack of light).
The Ficus Moclame is an ambiance plant: the more stable the light, the denser and more harmonious its foliage becomes.
