bonsaiTALK Community - View Single Post - Juniper, Ficus Retusa beginner help

Most of the covered malls in this area have ficus plantings that seem to do quite well with 70 degree temps and moderate light levels. Have watched several and realize that they are occasionally changed out for more healthy appearing plants. Talked to the contract gardner and they rotate all of the plantings to their green house as needed. We received one as a gift one time and kept it inside for about 15 years near a west facing window but was attentative to watering. Also set it out on a shaded front entry during the summer.
