Position Weeping Figs in a bright room, away from cold draughts and radiators, with a constant temperature of between 16 - 24C (60 - 75F). Give your plant plenty of light but avoid direct sunlight which will burn the leaves.

Water your weeping fig regularly, particularly from spring to autumn, when it is in growth. In winter, reduce the watering to keep the compost moist but not wet. Feed regularly during the growing season and maintain a humid atmosphere by lightly spraying or standing on a tray of pebbles and water.
