Ficus benjamina 'Starlight'
Ficus ‘Starlight’ is a striking, bushy variegated form of the classic Weeping Fig, featuring delicate, small, glossy green leaves edged in creamy white. The fine foliage and bright margins give this variety a lighter, more refined look than standard green forms, adding elegance and contrast to indoor spaces.
With its graceful, arching branches and neat growth habit, ‘Starlight’ is an excellent choice for bright rooms where it brings structure without feeling heavy. Ideal for living rooms, offices, or hallways, it thrives best in stable conditions with consistent light.
