About this plant
Ficus Table Bonsai is a small ficus trained into a compact tree shape with a thick trunk and dense, glossy leaves. This listing is a 50 cm plant for a table, shelf or console. Place it in a bright spot, near a window if possible, and keep it away from air conditioning vents and cold drafts. Water when the top of the soil feels dry, which in summer can be every few days in a small pot; in winter, less often. Ficus plants drop leaves when moved or when conditions change suddenly, so choose a spot and leave it there. Trim new growth with clean scissors to keep the shape.

Care Guide for Dubai Homes
How to keep Ficus Table Bonsai healthy through the Dubai year.
Light
Very bright, indirect light indoors; part shade outdoors with afternoon shade in summer. Keep it out of harsh direct afternoon sun in summer.
Watering
Every 3–5 days indoors in summer, when the topsoil feels dry; roughly weekly in winter. Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of soil feels dry, empty the saucer afterwards, and check the soil before you water: AC slows how fast the plant uses water.
Care notes
Soil: free-draining bonsai mix or potting mix with grit. Feeding: diluted balanced liquid feed every 2–3 weeks from March to October. Common mistake: letting the soil dry out fully in summer, which can quickly damage a bonsai. Where it works: dining tables, coffee tables, desks, consoles and shaded balconies.
AC and air flow
Keep it at least 1 metre from AC vents. Cold air blowing straight onto the leaves dries the edges.
Cleaning the leaves
Dust settles quickly in Dubai homes. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks so they keep taking in light.
Feeding and repotting
Feed once a month from March to October. Repot every 2 years into a pot one size up, or book a Plant Doctor visit and we do it for you.
Pets
Listed by the ASPCA as toxic to cats and dogs (ficin and ficusin in the milky sap; can cause stomach upset and skin irritation).
