Ficus String of Frogs

Ficus String of Frogs (Miniature Oakleaf Fig, Fig Ivy, Ficus Pumila, Climbing Fig) is a unique and attractive variety of ficus known for its small, round leaves that resemble tiny frogs sitting in a row, giving the plant its whimsical name. The leaves are typically a bright green when young, maturing to a darker green. They may sometimes have a slight variegation or a glossy appearance depending on light conditions and care. The leaves measure around 1-2 cm in length and are delicate and slightly leathery with a smooth surface. Ficus String of Frogs is a climbing and trailing plant. It has a vine-like growth habit and can attach itself to surfaces like walls, trellises, or even other plants using its aerial roots. When grown indoors, the plant can reach lengths of up to 3 meters. It is a fast-growing plant, particularly when provided with the right conditions. The unique appearance of the small, frog-like leaves adds a whimsical and delicate look to indoor spaces. It works well in hanging baskets, allowing the vines to trail down, or in a pot where it can climb up a support. Like many ficus plants, it can help purify indoor air by filtering out pollutants and providing fresher air.
