Fiddle Leaf Fig

The attractive leaves that resemble violins stretch up to 15 inches as well as 10 inches in width. “To give your personal Fiddle Leaf Fig the TLC it needs and deserves, make sure to place your plant in front of an unobstructed window that will receive direct sunshine,” suggests McFarlane.
