Info: The Apollo Ficus is a popular ornamental plant known for its lush foliage and adaptability to various indoor and outdoor environments. Belonging to the fig family, this plant can grow both as a tree or a shrub, depending on its environment and care.

Plantation:

  1. Soil: Prefers well-draining soil. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and pine bark is ideal.
  2. Location: Choose a spot with indirect sunlight for indoor plantation. For outdoor plantation, it prefers semi-shaded areas.
  3. Depth: The root ball of the plant should be just below the surface of the soil. Ensure it's not too deep or too shallow.

Growing:

  1. Watering: Keep the soil moist, but not soggy. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
  2. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season.
  3. Pruning: Regularly prune to shape the plant and promote denser foliage. Remove dead or yellowing leaves.

Care:

  1. Temperature: Apollo Ficus prefers temperatures between 60°F (15°C) and 75°F (24°C). Protect from drafts and sudden temperature changes.
  2. Pests: Watch out for common pests like mealybugs, aphids, and spider mites. Use insecticidal soap or neem oil as a preventive measure.
  3. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound.

Benefits:

  1. Air Purification: Like many houseplants, the Apollo Ficus is believed to help purify the air, removing toxins like formaldehyde.
  2. Aesthetics: Its lush greenery adds beauty and tranquility to spaces, enhancing interior decor.
  3. Mental Well-being: Being around plants, including the Apollo Ficus, has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and increase productivity
