Ficus Benjamina Exotica – Weeping Fig
🌿 Dense and elegant foliage • ☀️ Bright indirect light • 💧 Moderate watering • 🏙️ Large XXL structural plant
The Ficus Benjamina Exotica, also called Weeping Fig, is a majestic and elegant tropical plant, known for its dense foliage with small shiny deep green leaves. Its graceful drooping habit and natural branching create a sophisticated silhouette that brings lightness and structure to any interior.
Native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia and Australia, this species naturally grows into large trees where it develops its characteristic dense foliage. Its small shiny leaves allow it to efficiently capture filtered light. With its impressive height of 120 cm, it becomes the centerpiece of your urban jungle, perfect for dressing a living room, an entrance, or a spacious office.
Light & Location
The Ficus Benjamina Exotica enjoys bright indirect light. It tolerates various lighting conditions well, making it a versatile plant for all interiors.
- Light: bright indirect light to partial shade.
- Ideal: spacious living room, bright entrance, office, or room corner near a window.
- Temperature: 18 to 25 °C, without sudden changes.
- Substrate: rich, light, and well-drained (green plant potting soil + perlite).
Verdeia tip: give it enough space so its dense foliage can spread out harmoniously.
Watering & Care
- Watering: moderate; let the surface of the substrate dry slightly between waterings.
- Drainage: essential to avoid root rot — use a pot with drainage holes.
- Humidity: appreciates a slightly humid atmosphere; occasionally mist the foliage.
- Fertilizer: every 3 weeks in spring and summer, with diluted liquid fertilizer.
- Winter rest: reduce watering in autumn and winter.
Regularly clean the small shiny leaves with a damp cloth to preserve their shine.
Decor Ideas & Plant Combinations
With its imposing stature and dense drooping foliage, the Ficus Benjamina Exotica instantly becomes the centerpiece of your interior. It structures the space with elegance and lightness.
- To pair with: Monstera, Alocasia, Philodendron, or small plants at the base to create a layered composition.
- Ideal pot: large decorative pot in matte ceramic, terracotta, or XXL natural fiber basket.
- Ambiance: perfect to structure a living room, dress an entrance, or create a jungle corner in an office.
Place it in a room corner or near a sofa to create a spectacular and airy green focal point.
Verdeia Tips
- Avoid frequent moves: the Ficus can lose leaves when stressed.
- Maintain a stable temperature without cold drafts.
- Repot every 2 to 3 years in spring into a slightly larger pot.
- If some leaves fall during a location change, it is normal — the plant is adapting.
- Rotate the pot regularly for balanced growth towards the light.

Our Verdeia commitments
FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Shipping is done within 48 business hours, with tracked delivery within 2 to 5 business days. Delivery costs €5.60 — free for orders over €50. You will receive a tracking link as soon as the package is shipped.
What to do upon receiving my plant?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What to do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
