Description

The fiddle leaf fig brings natural elegance to your home. Its stunning violin-shaped leaves transform any room into a sophisticated sanctuary. This West African beauty has won hearts worldwide with its dramatic presence and surprisingly forgiving nature.

With those iconic leaves reaching up to 18 inches long, Ficus lyrata creates an instant focal point wherever you place her. She’s an absolute status symbol among modern decorators and plant-lovers. She's traded her wild rainforest home for designer living rooms, and we think she's made the right choice! 

This fiddle leaf fig plant grows steadily at 12-18 inches per year indoors, gracefully reaching 8-10 feet of living sculpture that brings warmth and character to your space.



Care 

Do fiddle leaf figs need direct sunlight? 

Your fiddle leaf fig loves bright, indirect sunlight. She'll appreciate gentle morning sun if you gradually introduce it, but harsh afternoon rays can leave it looking stressed and unhappy. East-facing windows give brightness without overwhelming its delicate leaves.


Is the fiddle leaf fig high maintenance?

We like to think of the fiddle leaf fig as just having clear preferences (but truthfully she is high maintenance). She simply knows what makes it happy and isn't shy about showing you! Once you understand its rhythm, it’s quite the agreeable companion. 

It appreciates consistent care, stable placement (it's not fond of being moved around), and the right balance of water and humidity. Master these basics, and you'll have a stunning statement piece that rewards your attention with years of beautiful growth.


Is the fiddle leaf fig a good indoor plant?

The fiddle leaf fig makes an absolutely wonderful indoor plant for those who appreciate both beauty and purpose in their green companions. It's particularly special because it naturally purifies your air while creating that sophisticated, magazine-worthy look.

Its large, glossy leaves make any room feel more alive and welcoming. It's perfect for bright living rooms, spacious bedrooms, or that corner that's been waiting for something special to bring it to life.


Do fiddle leaf figs like being in a bathroom? 

Fiddle leaf figs love a bathroom with a window because it gives them that perfect combination of humidity and gentle light. The natural moisture from your showers reminds it of its tropical home. Just make sure there's good natural light.


Do fiddle leaf figs need sun or shade? 

Fiddle leaf figs thrive with bright light and gentle protection—bright, indirect sunlight is exactly what makes them happiest. Think filtered sunshine rather than deep shade or harsh direct rays. They need enough light to maintain those gorgeous, glossy leaves.


How do I know if my fiddle leaf fig is happy? 

A content fiddle leaf fig will show you its displeasure through its beautiful, upright posture and those glossy green leaves that seem to shine with health. You'll notice steady new growth and a general sense of vitality about it.


Do fiddle leaf figs need to be by a window? 

Your fiddle leaf fig definitely needs to be near a window that offers bright, indirect light for at least six hours each day to maintain healthy growth. Avoid placing it where cold drafts might reach it during winter—it demands consistency.

Windows facing east work beautifully, offering gentle morning light. South-facing windows can work too if you use sheer curtains to soften the intensity. 


Where should I put my fiddle leaf fig indoors? 

The best spots for your fiddle leaf fig plant are near an east-facing window, in a bright bathroom with natural light, or grouped with other humidity-loving plants to create a lovely little ecosystem. It's happiest at temperatures between 60-85°F (16-29°C).

Avoid high-traffic areas where it might get bumped or jostled, spots near heating vents or air conditioners, and any dark corners where it'll struggle.


How often should I water my fiddle leaf fig? 

Water your fiddle leaf fig when the top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry to the touch—typically once weekly during spring and summer, less frequently in winter. Base your plans on checking the soil rather than following a strict schedule. 

When you do water, give it a slow, thorough drink until water runs from the drainage holes. Consistency is what it appreciates most, helping prevent those dramatic responses it's known for.


Should I mist my fiddle leaf fig? 

Misting your fiddle leaf fig every few days helps create the humid environment it naturally craves, bringing a bit of that rainforest feeling to your home. Use filtered or distilled water to prevent spots on its beautiful leaves. 

You can also place it on a pebble tray filled with water or use a humidifier nearby—it'll appreciate any effort to increase the moisture around it.


Should I put coffee grounds in my fiddle leaf fig? 

Please skip the coffee grounds for your fiddle leaf fig—they can change the soil's pH and sometimes encourage mold growth, which won't make it happy. Instead, stick with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer every 1-2 months during spring and summer.


Are fiddle leaf figs sensitive to tap water? 

Fiddle leaf figs are sensitive to the chemicals commonly found in tap water, like chlorine and fluoride. Using filtered water, distilled water, or simply letting tap water sit overnight before using it can make a real difference.


What fertilizer should I use on my fiddle leaf fig? 

A balanced, liquid houseplant fertilizer works wonderfully for fiddle leaf fig fertilizer needs—dilute to half strength and apply every 1-2 months during the growing season. During fall and winter, let it rest without any feeding. It's quite sensitive to over-fertilizing.



Pet-friendly?

The fiddle leaf fig isn't safe for pets, as it can cause oral irritation, drooling, and digestive upset if your curious companions decide to sample its leaves. While it's not severely toxic, it's best to keep it out of reach of both cats and dogs who might be tempted to explore.


Are fiddle leaf figs poisonous to cats?

Fiddle leaf figs can cause oral irritation, excessive drooling, and stomach upset if cats chew on the leaves. The sap can also irritate skin, so it's definitely a "look but don't touch" plant for both you and your feline friends.


Are fiddle leaf figs toxic to dogs? 

Fig leaf trees can cause mouth irritation, drooling, and digestive issues if dogs nibble on the leaves, so consider keeping in a room where your dog doesn't usually spend time, or up high where those exploring noses can't reach.


Factoids

How fast do fiddle leaf figs grow? 

When well cared for, fiddle leaf figs grow at a satisfying pace of 12-18 inches per year indoors, gradually developing into tall living sculptures… or just skip a step and buy our fiddle leaf fig that’s 9-10 feet tall already. Growth depends on consistent light, proper watering, and seasonal changes.

Fiddle leaf figs are most active during spring and summer, taking a natural rest during the cooler months. 


Do fiddle leaf figs clean the air? 

Your fiddle leaf fig does double duty as both a beautiful statement piece and a natural air purifier. It removes common household toxins like formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene, while adding fresh oxygen wherever you decide to place it.

NASA's Clean Air Study recognized fig plants as effective air cleaners, so it's essentially a living air filter that happens to look absolutely stunning while doing her job.


Do fiddle leaf figs represent anything? 

Fiddle leaf figs symbolize prosperity, abundance, and good fortune. They're also obviously symbols of excellent taste in interior design circles! In feng shui traditions, large leafy plants like the fiddle leaf fig tree represent growth and abundance.

Happy it is unflavored
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
I was worried about the taste based on some of the reviews. I tried it in my coffee, and I'm glad I did it that way. I keep coffee in the fridge, so that is what I mixed with one tablespoon of this. I use half and half and no sugar. I tasted it. It tastes like burnt coffee. Not a bad thing...thats just what the taste it added. I decided to see what would happen if I added a splash of a flavored creamer. The taste went away instantly. Hope this helps someone!

Great for my tidy mind. Now the cabinet is organized and clean. Space saving too
Size: Left Facing, Size: Left Facing
Easy install. Glides nicely holds the jars without much movement. The labels are wonderful. I am super pleased. We bought 4 left facing for our cabinet. Not done replacing all the jars and such. But you can see a good idea how it will be. The fit out needs perfectly and looks great. I really like how neat and good visibility too. They seem sturdy with all the weight of the filled bottles also.

Great space saver, keeps everything organized.
Size: Left Facing, Size: Left Facing
I am soooo happy with this purchase! I’ve been researching lots of spice racks to see which ones would best suit my needs. This definitely fits the bill. This product was perfect. It includes everything you need to organize your spices: the rack, screws, stickers, bottles, and a white gel pen to write additional spice names. The rack is heavy duty and sturdy. Once anchored to your cabinet, there’s no way it’s falling out. The bottles are a good size and you can transfer standard store bought spices directly into the bottles. An additional asset is that the bottles come with a shaker spout that has two options for use. It can easily snap off and on when refilling. The stickers are well thought out. They’re good quality labels and can easily be repositioned. I accidentally had an edge stick to the middle of a bottle and was scared that it wouldn’t come off. I was happy that it lifted up cleanly and didn’t wrinkle the sticker. I didn’t have a need to write a lot of new names, except for two so far. Using the pen included, I wrote labels for Dashi and Seasoning-Arrachera. I tried to match the font of the labels and I think I did a pretty good job. You wouldn’t notice it was hand written unless you really stared at it. The white pen is great and so easy to write with. I didn’t have to go over any letters. One pen stroke was enough. It also came with labels that you can place on the side of the rack for easy identification. I haven’t put them on mine yet because I still need to buy two more racks to store all my spices. Then I can get them all organized the way I want. This is such a space saver. One of my absolute favorite purchases!

Absolutely worth the money!
Size: Left Facing, Size: Left Facing
I can't say enough about these spice racks! I have kept my spices in a corner cabinet on lazy Susans for the last 25 years and that's worked great, but it did not have much curb appeal and some spices were in the middle of the caddies so I would have to pull the front ones off to get to the middle ones. Corner cabinets are tricky and can be such a waste of space, but I made it work. But now it doesn't just work, it sings! My husband bought me 4 units and they fit perfectly in the space. Whoever designed these racks thought through EVERYTHING. The labels are well organized with plenty of obscure herbs and spices as well as all the common ones, and some blank stickers for the products they don't have labels for. There is a list of all the spices and which page you will find the label. There are also small corresponding labels to put on the ends so you know which rack has your spice (I haven't put those on yet because I want to make sure I have everything where I want it first). Since I have 4 sets of labels, I used some for labeling the baskets where I have the extra spices for refills. The racks are sturdy and easy to install. These would also work well in cabinets that are not corners - you would pull them straight out and it would make it easy to access all of your spices. If I could give this 10 stars, I would.

Fabulous!
Size: Left Facing, Size: Left Facing
I wish I had remembered to take a picture before I emptied my spice cabinet. Actually, on second thought, it would be embarrassing to share. I have two of these sturdy slide-out spice racks and could use another one. The racks were not hard to install, slide smoothly, look great, and my spices are in order! I was able to fit two of them on one side of my cabinet. I love the jars and labels. I use some spices much more than others so I put the matching labels on the large containers of these spices and keep them on the top shelf. I would definitely buy these again!
