How to Grow?
Any good, fast-draining potting soil will likely do. Weeping figs do not require soil that is especially high in nutrients or organic matter.
Keep the plant steadily moist, but do not allow it to sit in water or it will drop leaves and may develop root rot.
Strong, indirect sunlight is preferred for weeping figs. Your plant will benefit from lots of indirect sunlight during the day if you place it close to a window.
Take your cues from the plant and be prepared to repot annually in many circumstances. Move a weeping fig plant to a new pot in early spring, whether you ‘re giving a new plant a more permanent home or repotting an existing plant.
During the growing season, typically from spring to early fall, you can fertilize your Rubber Plant once a month with a balanced liquid fertilizer formulated for indoor plants.
Weeping fig can be relatively easy to root from cuttings, even without rooting hormone. It is best to take a cutting in the spring when you can more easily supply warmth and moisture.
