Ficus benjamina 'Midnight Lady'
Ficus ‘Midnight Lady’ is a striking weeping fig variety with slender, arching branches clothed in narrow, glossy leaves of very dark green, almost black. The deep foliage colour gives this plant a sleek, dramatic look while retaining the graceful, flowing habit Ficus benjamina is known for.
More compact and refined than many weeping figs, ‘Midnight Lady’ is ideal for bright interiors where it adds height and elegance without overwhelming the space. Best grown in a stable position with consistent light, it makes a superb architectural feature for living rooms, offices, or hallways.
- Other names: Weeping Fig
- Useful to know: Toxic if ingested - keep away from pets and children
- Eventual height: Can grow up to 200cm
- Origins: Southeast Asia and Australia
