Size: 180cm 

Light

• Bright, Indirect Light: Place your Ficus Panda in a spot that receives filtered sunlight or partial shade. 

Watering

• Regular Watering: Ensure the soil is consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Adjust frequency based on sun and temperature.

Soil

• Well-Draining Soil: Use a rich, well-draining soil mix. Amend the soil with organic matter if necessary to improve drainage and nutrients.

Fertilization

• During Growing Season: Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring and summer. Follow package instructions for application rates.

Pruning

• Prune as Needed: Trim back any leggy growth and shape the plant as desired. This can be done in late spring or early summer.

Pest Management

• Monitor for Pests: Keep an eye out for pests like aphids and spider mites. Use insecticidal soap or neem oil if infestations occur.

Additional Tips

• Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
• Container Growth: If planted in containers, ensure they are large enough for root growth and that they have drainage holes.

With these guidelines, your Ficus Panda can flourish outdoors, adding lush greenery to your garden or patio!
