🌱 Care Instructions:
Light:
Bright, indirect light is ideal. Tolerates lower light but grows more slowly. Avoid direct afternoon sun which can scorch its delicate leaves.
Water:
Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry. It appreciates high humidity—mist regularly if kept in a dry room.
Temperature & Humidity:
Thrives in warm, humid environments (65–85°F). Perfect for tropical terrariums and vivariums. Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 55°F.
Soil:
Well-draining, nutrient-rich substrate is best. A tropical terrarium mix with organic material like sphagnum moss and coco coir works well.
Growth Habit:
Creeping Fig will vine and climb with ease—train it along surfaces or trim regularly to manage size and shape.
