Ficus is also known as a weeping fig tree or rubber tree and is a tropical plant that can grow up to heights of 50 feet outdoors! Water your ficus tree consistently so the soil stays moist, but does not become soggy, which can cause root rot. Water once a day or when the soil is dry to the touch about 1 inch deep. Be careful not to let the soil dry out completely or the leaves may start to turn yellow and drop. Give your tree good bright light by placing it in front of a south-facing window.
