Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

The Fiddle Leaf Fig, or Ficus Lyrata, is a tropical plant native to western Africa's rainforests. In its natural habitat, it can grow into a large tree, but as a houseplant, it maintains a manageable size while producing its signature large, violin-shaped leaves. These glossy, leathery leaves can reach up to 12 inches in length and feature prominent veins that add to their visual appeal. The plant has a strong, upright growth habit with a single trunk that branches out as it matures, creating an impressive silhouette. While it rarely flowers or fruits indoors, its foliage is more than enough to make it a standout addition to any plant collection.
Fiddle Leaf Figs thrive in bright, indirect light. An ideal location would be near an east or north-facing window where the plant receives gentle morning light. Direct afternoon sun should be avoided as it can scorch the large leaves. If natural light is limited, you can supplement with a grow light, but keep it at a distance to prevent leaf burn. The plant can adapt to medium light conditions, but growth may slow down. Rotate your plant occasionally to ensure even growth and prevent it from leaning toward the light source. In terms of placement, the Fiddle Leaf Fig works well in living rooms, studies, or entryways where it can become a decorative focal point without being exposed to temperature fluctuations or drafts.
Proper watering is crucial for the health of your Fiddle Leaf Fig. Water the plant thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of soil are completely dry. This typically means watering every 1-2 weeks, but frequency depends on factors like light, temperature, and humidity. Always check the soil moisture before watering to avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. The plant prefers moderate humidity levels, so in dry indoor environments, occasional misting or placing the plant on a pebble tray with water can help maintain adequate moisture. During the growing season (spring and summer), you may need to water more frequently, while in winter, reduce watering as the plant's growth slows down.
It's important to note that Fiddle Leaf Figs are toxic to pets if ingested. The sap contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation to the mouth, tongue, and throat if chewed or swallowed by cats, dogs, or other animals. Symptoms may include drooling, difficulty swallowing, and vomiting. If you have pets, consider placing the plant in an area they cannot access or choose a pet-safe alternative. For pet owners who still wish to enjoy this beautiful plant, keeping it elevated or in hanging baskets can help prevent curious pets from reaching it.
