💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Water your Weeping Fig when the top few centimetres of soil are dry. Ensure thorough watering that allows moisture to soak through to the bottom, but always let excess water drain away. Never let the plant sit in water as it can lead to root rot.

💦 Humidity
💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
Ficus Benjamina Samantha enjoys moderate to high humidity. It can do well in the naturally higher humidity levels of kitchens and bathrooms. Consider misting the leaves or using a pebble tray to increase humidity if needed.
🪴 Repotting
Repot your Ficus every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to ensure healthy growth and drainage. Spring is the best time for repotting, as the plant will recover and grow more vigorously during the growing season.
