ON THIS PLANT

The Ficus Umbellata can be the ideal plant for your decor in 2022 if you're searching for a fresh, quirky addition. Although the not-so-humiliated Fiddle Leaf Fig has received more attention, some of its less well-known cousins may begin to share the spotlight in 2022. The Umbellata is an African houseplant that belongs to the fig (ficus) family and is well-known in Japanese culture. The Fiddle Leaf Fig and this newcomer both have broad, heart-shaped leaves and skinny stalks.
