Function solution
Fast-growing ray of sunshine
Plants are wonderful roommates that make your home more vibrant. This weeping fig is fast-growing, so you may need to trim it so it keeps its shape. Also remember that it’s slightly sensitive to dryness, placement changes and direct sunlight. It can make the leaves fall off – but not to worry, new ones grow so you can enjoy the plant for a long time.
