Temperature: Fiddle Leaf Figs prefer temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18°C to 24°C) and are sensitive to temperature fluctuations. Protect them from drafts and extreme cold.

Potting: Repot your Fiddle Leaf Fig as needed when it becomes root-bound. Choose a well-draining potting mix and a slightly larger pot to allow room for growth.

Pruning: Prune your Fiddle Leaf Fig to maintain its shape and remove any damaged or unsightly leaves. You can also encourage branching and bushier growth through selective pruning.
