The Fiddle Leaf Fig gets all the press. The Ficus Altissima quietly outperforms it.

Same bold, tree-like presence. Broader, glossier leaves with that sought-after variegated lime and green pattern. Thicker trunk. And considerably less drama about its living situation. This Ficus Altissima tree is already the size most people are working toward - a wide, branching canopy on a substantial trunk that fills a room the way a piece of furniture can't.

Native to tropical forests across Southeast Asia, this fig can reach 100 feet in the wild. Indoors, a large container and your ceiling keep things more manageable - typically around 6 feet, which is exactly where this specimen already is. She's a commitment, and she's worth it.

She is not pet-friendly, so placement away from curious animals is worth thinking through before she arrives.

One plant. One home.

There's one of her. Book a live video call to meet her before someone else does - you say hello, she ships exactly as you saw her.

How much light does a Ficus Altissima need?

Ficus Altissima thrives in bright indirect light and benefits from a few hours of gentle direct sun - early morning or late afternoon - to maintain dense growth and strong variegation. Harsh midday sun through glass can scorch her leaves, so a position right beside your brightest window, rather than directly in it, works best. For a large specimen, rotating the pot periodically helps the canopy fill out evenly rather than leaning toward the light source.

How often should you water a Ficus Altissima?

Ficus Altissima should be watered when the top layer of soil has dried out, then watered slowly and thoroughly until water drains from the base. For a large specimen in a deep pot, this typically means watering every one to two weeks, more frequently in bright warm conditions and less in lower light or winter. Chronic overwatering is the main cause of root rot and yellowing leaves in this Ficus tree, so when in doubt, wait another day or two before watering.

What fertilizer does a Ficus Altissima need?

Ficus Altissima benefits from a balanced liquid fertilizer applied every four weeks during spring and summer. Large, actively growing specimens appreciate consistent feeding to maintain vigorous growth and foliage color, but over-fertilizing causes salt buildup and leaf tip damage, so sticking to the recommended dilution matters. Feeding should stop in autumn and winter when growth naturally slows.

What temperature does a Ficus Altissima like?

Ficus Altissima is most comfortable between 65-75°F (18-24°C) and prefers a stable, consistently warm room. Cold drafts, sudden temperature changes, and relocation can all trigger leaf drop in this fig - a well-known Ficus trait. She should never be exposed to near-freezing temperatures and is best kept away from exterior doors and air conditioning vents.

Does a Ficus Altissima like humidity?

Ficus Altissima prefers moderate to high humidity, ideally around 50% or above, for best foliage quality. For a large specimen, a room humidifier or grouping with other plants is more effective than misting alone. Low humidity shows up as brown, crispy leaf edges over time.

How big does a Ficus Altissima get indoors?

Indoors, Ficus Altissima is typically maintained at around 6 feet tall, with a broad, branching canopy that can spread several feet wide in good conditions. Container size and ceiling height are the practical limits - in her native Southeast Asian forests, this fig species reaches close to 100 feet tall. This particular specimen is already at that impressive indoor height, with the canopy to match.

How fast does a Ficus Altissima grow?

Ficus Altissima is a moderately fast grower under good light, warmth, and humidity - faster than many comparable indoor trees. Indoors, reaching 6 feet takes several years of consistent care, which is what makes a mature specimen worth having now. Growth slows noticeably in lower light or when the plant is pot-bound and underfed.

Is a Ficus Altissima pet-friendly?

Ficus Altissima is not pet-friendly. As a fig species, it contains irritating compounds in its sap and foliage - including ficin and psoralen - that are toxic to both cats and dogs. The ASPCA lists Ficus species as toxic to pets, with symptoms including drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, and skin irritation. She's best placed in a room or position that pets cannot access.

Is a Ficus Altissima toxic to cats?

Ficus Altissima is toxic to cats. The sap and foliage of fig trees can cause oral and gastrointestinal irritation, with symptoms including drooling, vomiting, and diarrhea. Any cat that chews the foliage should be monitored closely and a vet contacted if symptoms appear.

Is a Ficus Altissima toxic to dogs?

Ficus Altissima is toxic to dogs. Contact with or ingestion of the sap and foliage can cause gastrointestinal irritation and dermal irritation, with symptoms including vomiting, drooling, and lethargy. Dogs prone to chewing houseplants should be kept well away from her, and a vet should be contacted if ingestion occurs.

I like it just not the soft side
Scent: Gray
Now when I looking for cloths. I was looking for a face one. There was a photo here that showed a up close shot of the texture of the rough side... that's what made me get it. And I'm honestly happy that I did. I literally just came out the shower. Im air drying while writing this lol. To talk about how it's worth the money getting this. Im surprise they don't have more ratings. When you look at the video for this product it looks dramatic cause it is. Its meant to be. but when they actually mention details about the product...... its the honest truth. The rough I love it. I actually feel like I have a new skin after rubbing all the dead skin off my body and used another one to rub my feet (never mix the two lol) so the rough side of the product has 100% 👍🏽 👍🏽 from me. But the soft side. Ehh honestly it isn't for me if the soft side was a bit more rough. I would love it. But when I used it it felt like I was just rubbing batter on me or something like that. If they made a glove version of this I would buy 1 for each day of the week lol. If they another cloth that didn't have such a soft side I'll buy that instead. But honestly this product is amazing and worth the money they're asking form. Which isn't a lot. Believe me you'll feel better after that good scrub down... just be gentle at certain areas and on your neck. I'm going to buy the actual face one from this company on my next pay check. So worth it

Small Wash Cloth - Potholder Size
I really want to rave about the product, but it is just too small. The wash cloth lather's really well (it will save on liquid soap). I love the exfoliating side, I feel I am getting clean. I am a female who loves to work outside in the garden, ride ATV's and do woodworking. I get really dirty and it is great for removing dirt! My husband loves the cloth too, but he is tall (6'2") and the cloth is really small for him. For Him, my solution was to sew two of them together (don't judge my sewing skills). He can now use it as a wash cloth and back scratcher/cleaner (loops sewn at opposing ends). Pros: Cleans well, lots of lather with little soap, has a hanging hoop. Cons: Extremely Small (that is a regular size white Bed and Bath wash cloth for comparison). If using the terry cloth side, hard to hold because synthetic scrubby side is slick, the terry side also tends to "ball up" (I don't think this can be fixed because of the nature of the synthetic side). Please make this product larger, I would definitely buy again. Thank You!
