How to grow small-leaf banyan tree

1. Soil

The small-leaf banyan tree prefers humus soil. When preparing the soil, you can choose a mixture of half garden soil and half humus, and add some sand. This kind of soil is relatively loose, but its water retention capacity is not very good. We can spread some moss on the surface of the soil so that the water will not be lost too quickly.

2. Watering

First of all, we need to know that it has a certain degree of drought resistance, so don’t water it too often. It’s okay to water it less. But if you water it too much, its root system will be affected.

3. Lighting

It likes to grow in sunny places, but the light should not be too strong. If the light is too strong, it will affect its leaves, causing them to curl and dry out.

4. Fertilization

It likes fertilizer, but when the temperature is relatively high in summer, be careful not to apply too much fertilizer. Its ability to absorb fertilizer is relatively small under high temperature conditions. In spring and autumn, you can apply more fertilizer, put it on the edge of the pot, and then dilute it with water.
