Ficus longifolia - 17cm pot desert rose An unusual prehistoric group ofPossibly our favourite from the Ficus family, longifolia is an elegant, hardy option for those wanting an indoor tree. If you have heard us talk about it in store, it's the indoor gum tree! Slower growing than their longifolia cousins, they will not need to be potted up quite as regularly, making them perfect for spaces in which you need some height, but nothing too visually heavy. Allow to dry between watering and keep in well draining potting mix.
