Ficus Alii

The Ficus Alii, also known as Ficus maclellandii or banana-leaf fig, is a popular indoor tree admired for its slender, elongated leaves and graceful, upright form. The Ficus Alii is relatively low-maintenance, making it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts and interior designers alike. Its glossy, dark green leaves grow in a slightly drooping fashion, giving the tree a soft, elegant appearance that adds a touch of tropical sophistication to any room. It can be grown as a single-trunk tree or in a braided or multi-stem form, offering visual interest and versatility in styling.

Ficus Alii thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers well-draining soil with consistent moisture — though it’s forgiving of occasional neglect. This tree also helps purify indoor air, contributing to a healthier living environment. With proper care, it can grow to impressive heights indoors, often reaching 6 to 10 feet tall. Its upright, structured shape makes it ideal for filling vertical space in corners or framing entryways. Overall, the Ficus Alii is a beautiful and hardy plant that brings both form and function to indoor landscapes.
