The Ficus 'Snowstorm' stands out with its unique variegated foliage. Its oval and pointed leaves display a mix of dark green, light green, and creamy white, creating a striking contrast and an impression of movement.
Main Features:
- Foliage: Evergreen leaves, oval and pointed, variegated with dark green, light green, and creamy white.
- Habit: Shrubby and bushy, with thin and flexible branches that can be pruned to shape a specific silhouette.
- Growth: The Ficus 'Snowstorm' has moderate growth and can reach a height of 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 feet) indoors, with a similar width. Its shape can be shaped by pruning to create a dense bush or a small tree.
- Care: Relatively easy, but requires special attention to lighting and watering to maintain its vibrant variegated foliage.
Care Tips:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn its leaves and alter its variegation.
- Watering: Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Overwatering can cause leaf drop and root rot.
- Soil: Use well-draining potting mix for houseplants.
- Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high ambient humidity. Mist the foliage regularly, especially in winter when the air is dry.
- Temperature: Prefers stable temperatures between 18°C and 24°C (64°F and 75°F). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
- Fertilizing: Fertilize once a month during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.
