ProRep Live plant. Weeping Fig (Extra Tall)
General Information: Weeping figs are popular houseplants known for their elegant, drooping leaves. These plants are easy to care for and can grow well in different indoor settings, which is ideal for terrariums.
In addition to enhancing the terrarium’s visual appeal, these plants offer benefits to the animals. Living plants offer natural cover, climbing perches, shade, basking sites, and help maintain natural humidity. Similar to how office plants benefit workers’ well-being, terrarium plants have a comparable effect on animals.
These plants are carefully chosen for terrariums, including unique and rare species, going beyond typical houseplants. We selected plants to suit different habitats and growth patterns, offering a variety of options. You can find succulents for arid environments, bromeliads, ground cover plants, epiphytes for jungle setups, and aquatic plants and mosses in stock.
These plants enhance your pet’s terrarium, creating a natural and attractive environment. See our bioactive set up kits.
Weeping figs are great for arboreal lizard tanks because their sturdy branches provide climbing opportunities for your pet lizard. Their ability to tolerate some direct sunlight makes them versatile for different lighting conditions.
It’s best to add a drainage layer when planting weeping figs to ensure the soil drains well and prevent root rot. It also requires moderate watering, which can cause waterlogging without the drainage layer. Regularly pruning will help maintain the desired shape and size of the plant within the terrarium.
Weeping Fig is one of over 40 different plant species. For advice on turning your pets tank bioactive, or anything else, please contact us.
