Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' is a banyan fig grown indoors for its oval to oblong leaves, firm texture, and softly visible pale veins. The foliage emerges fresh green and matures to a deeper tone, giving the plant a calm, substantial look as the woody stems strengthen.

Ficus benghalensis is a tree-forming fig, so Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' responds best to stable warmth, bright filtered light and a root zone that dries gradually after watering.

Leaf and stem traits in Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

  • Leaf finish: Leathery oval to oblong leaves mature deep green with paler veins.
  • Woody framework: Stems gradually firm up and branch, giving the plant a clear small-tree habit indoors.
  • Species background: Belongs to Ficus benghalensis, the banyan fig, native to the Indian Subcontinent.
  • Indoor size: Grown as a houseplant, it stays much smaller than outdoor banyan trees and can be shaped by pruning.

Banyan fig structure in a pot

Ficus benghalensis is a tree species from seasonally dry tropical regions of the Indian Subcontinent. In nature, banyan figs can become massive trees with strong trunks and aerial-root development, while indoor plants are managed as woody container specimens with a much smaller root volume.

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' keeps the species’ firm leaves, latex-bearing stems, and tree-building habit, but in a pot its growth is shaped by light, container size, and pruning. Healthy new leaves depend on a root ball that dries gradually after watering, because saturated indoor substrate reduces oxygen around the roots and often shows first as yellowing or leaf drop.

Care routine for Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

  • Light: Give bright filtered light. The firm leaves and woody stems need enough light to support compact shoot growth and strong leaf colour.
  • Watering: Water deeply after the top layer has dried. Let the full root ball rehydrate, then allow the pot to drain so roots do not sit in stagnant moisture.
  • Substrate: Use a structured, well-aerated houseplant mix with bark, coco chips, perlite, pumice, or similar components. Dense peat-heavy mixes stay wet too long around woody Ficus roots.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C. Cold windowsills, draughts, and sudden night drops can disturb root uptake.
  • Humidity: Normal indoor humidity is often acceptable when watering is steady, but very dry air can affect tender new growth and leaf margins.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Flush the substrate occasionally with plain water if fertiliser salts build up on the surface.
  • Pruning: Cut above a node to maintain height or encourage branching. Pruning is best done while the plant is actively growing and able to seal cuts quickly.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots circle densely or the plant dries unusually fast. A moderate pot increase supports new root growth while keeping watering predictable.

Issue checks for Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey'

  • Lower leaf drop: Check for a recent move, a temperature dip, or inconsistent watering. Stabilise the position before making further changes.
  • Yellow leaves: Inspect the root ball for wet pockets and poor drainage. Adjust watering only after checking moisture deeper in the pot.
  • Brown edges: Can follow dry spells, low humidity during new growth, or salt build-up. Rebalance watering and reduce feeding until the next healthy flush appears.
  • Small new leaves: Usually points to limited light, restricted roots, or weak feeding during growth. Check light first, then root space and nutrient routine.
  • Scale or mealybug: Inspect along veins, petioles, and woody stems. Remove pests early and repeat checks because Ficus stems offer good hiding places.

Latex and pet safety

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' is not pet-safe. Leaves and stems contain irritating milky latex that can cause mouth and stomach irritation if chewed, and sap may irritate skin or eyes during pruning. Keep it away from pets and small children, and clean tools after cutting.

Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' name background

Ficus is the classical Latin name for the fig. The species name benghalensis refers to Bengal in South Asia.

Pale-veined leaves, firm foliage and upright woody growth give Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey' its calm banyan-fig shape indoors.

Great suit
Size: 12, Color: Mint Green, Size: 12, Color: Mint Green
Very nice suit. Love the material. My 11 year old is tall and slim- 5’3”, 80 lbs. I got a size 12 for the length. The jacket fit perfectly, the pants was good length and has elastic in the waist to adjust for size. Overall, it’s a good suit and I’d recommend it.

Nice Suit - Light Gray Color OF Suit IS Not A Solid Light Gray, It Has Linear Designs
Size: 12, Color: Light Grey, Size: 12, Color: Light Grey
I had purchased this polyester and linen blend suit for my son, in size 12Y for him in the color light gray. The color of the suit depicted in the advertisement arrived to be a bit different upon arrival. It's not a solid color light gray, it actually has small black liner lines dispersed all over the suit. The coat features a single button in the center, and there are two side pockets fairly decent sized. Unfortunately right above the pockets are red colored lineal horizontal lines. I don't think those lines are part of the coat's design, there definitely is some printing malfunction. It is hard to see in the pictures advertised, you can see it in the pictures and video I have posted clearly. The material of the suit is fairly acceptable, actually better than expected. The child can actually wear it multiple times for various occasions. The suit emits grace along with acceptable stitching in every apparel along with the bowtie. The suit did arrive in a slide bag all folded up, so there were a number of wrinkles especially on the coat, its as if it had lost its shape. I will definitely need to steam iron it before it will be worn. Just like the coat has pockets the tailored pants also have two side pockets, and belt loops in case need of belt if the pants are loose. I'm actually glad I had ordered two sizes up because compared to his current measurements the suit is big on, especially the pants waist and length. I had measured the suit myself and below are the measurements. Pants Waist - 15.25 Inches Pants Length - 35.75 Inches Pant's Inseam 25 Inches Coat's Length - 24.5 Inches Coat's Shoulders - About 14.5 Inches Coat's Sleeve Length - 22 Inches Coat's Chest - 15.5 Inches In addition to the suit, I also received a solid colored light gray, bowtie. The bowtie has an adjustable strap, so you can set the bowtie to your comfort in the collar. You can wear it along the suit or without it if needed to match with something and still manage to look a show topper!. The coat has nice shoulder padding therefore it sits across the shoulders nicely having it hold its shape and style. Overall it's not a bad purchase, suits like these always come in handy for a unexpected or expected events. I'm glad I had purchased this suit I'm sure it'll come to use one day.
