Why can't we grow banyan trees at home?

1. Limited space

Generally speaking, it is not recommended to keep banyan trees at home. The banyan tree is very tall, reaching a height of about 15-25 meters, with a large breast diameter and a wide crown, so it will occupy a lot of space. The space in the home is generally limited, making it difficult to accommodate the growth of a banyan tree. This may restrict people’s normal lives and is not conducive to the expansion and growth of the banyan tree itself.

2. Attract mosquitoes

Banyan trees have thick old roots, from which many aerial roots extend, providing a suitable habitat for mosquitoes, thereby attracting a large number of mosquitoes. There are too many mosquitoes in the home, which will affect people's lives.

3. Affecting lighting

Banyan trees have a relatively broad crown, which blocks more sunlight and affects indoor lighting. Moreover, when keeping banyan trees at home, there are some houses and buildings around them, which will block some of the sunlight, so that the banyan trees cannot receive sufficient light, causing problems in their own growth and being unfavorable for the growth of branches and leaves.

4. Poor ventilation

The tall shape of the banyan tree will affect ventilation, resulting in poor indoor ventilation quality, making the room stuffy and airtight, seriously affecting people's quality of life.
