The Ficus Lyrata, also known as the Fiddle Leaf Plant or Tobacco Plant, is an impressive green houseplant. Its large, green leaves are violin-shaped and have striking yellow veins, which makes this houseplant a real eye-catcher in any interior.
This houseplant originally comes from west Africa. In its natural habitat, the Fiddle Leaf plant can grow up to 20 meters tall and its leaves can reach an impressive half meter in diameter. In the Western world it is mainly kept indoors, where it remains a lot smaller.
The Latin name 'Lyrata' refers to the shape of the leaves, which resemble a violin. This unique characteristic, together with its air purifying properties, makes the Ficus Lyrata a popular choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.
The Torun plant basket is a trendy plant basket. Lined with a strong inner pocket and has a sturdy natural look. You can place the plant in the basket with or without a nursery pot. It is important to always place a thin layer of hydro granules on the bottom so that the plant does not stand with its feet in the water. The excess water will then be absorbed by the granules.
