I had forgotten to ask my husband to unbox it immediately. It sat for days before I got home and unwrapped it. Though it was slightly wilted from my mistake, the healthy plant was able to bounce back within hours of being unwrapped and watered. It was obvious the plant had been shipped properly and must have been in excellent condition to last that long laying on its side in a dark box. You will want to repot the tree (after letting it recover from shipping stress of course). The pot it came in was filled to the top with soil which makes watering difficult. Eventually I want it in a large pot but I will incrementally increase the pot size to prevent an environment that hinders keeping the soil evenly moist and the root system vigorous and free from rot. I will definitely buy from this seller again. It’s hard to find much variety of houseplants in my local garden center and I’m so pleased mail order worked out so well. UPDATE 2023 the tree is now about 4 years old! I have pruned it up like a tree instead of a bush and it is about 3 feet tall. I keep it in my office except in the summer months it is on my porch outside (full shade). Has stayed very healthy and pest-free. I don’t think it can get any bigger in the size pot I have it in and it is perfect for me. Review: Healthy Thriving Ficus Tree! - I ordered my ficus tree about a month ago and was very satisfied with my purchase. The tree I received wasnt three feet tall like others have said but it was about two feet from the soil up. I potted it up as soon as I got it and watered it throughly with lukewarm water and a few drops of dishwashing soap to deter any small bugs from infesting the soil. I sat the plant outside in a cool shaded area on the side of my house to breathe and soak up some indirect sunlight. To my surprise it rained the following day and I knew the ficus would get a great start from the good rain water. I have had the ficus about a month now and after about three weeks in the shade I moved it into a sunnier location in my yard. I noticed this plant hasnt lost any branches or leaves since I got it. I think I want to keep it pruned to about four feet when it grows to that height and root the clippings for more plants. In my opinion this is a very healthy and durable plant. Its also fun to watch it grow and produce beautiful green shiny leaves that glisten in the hot summer sunlight. I had a good experience with this seller and I would recommend everyone to purchase a ficus tree from them. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00MT0OAUK | | Best Sellers Rank | #570,310 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #1,371 in Artificial Trees | | Brand | Hirts: House Plant | | Brand Name | Hirts: House Plant | | Color | Green | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 596 Reviews | | Expected Blooming Period | Winter | | Expected Planting Period | Winter | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Manufacturer Part Number | MorningFicusMidnight6 | | Moisture Needs | Moderate Watering | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Plant or Animal Product Type | ficus | | Product Care Instructions | Keep Evenly Moist | | Sunlight Exposure | Full Sun, Partial Shade | | USDA Hardiness Zone | 3 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hirts: House Plant - **Color:** Green - **Expected Blooming Period:** Winter - **Expected Planting Period:** Winter - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Indoor - **Moisture Needs:** Moderate Watering - **Product Care Instructions:** Keep Evenly Moist - **Sunlight Exposure:** Full Sun, Partial Shade - **USDA Hardiness Zone:** 3 - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![Wintergreen Weeping Fig Tree - Ficus - Great Indoor Tree for Low Light - 8" Pot - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71iI+tPfFqL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why is my Weeping Fig dying? It's losing leaves like crazy. I haven't had a chance to repot it yet.** A: My ficus will lose most of its leaves once a year. No big deal. If it was healthy before, no need to change anything, just keep watering as usual. **Q: Can the ficus be braided?** A: Yes. I braided mine a few years ago and it's doing Great. **Q: I see that the reviews are conflicting,I’d love for the seller to answer my question ..how tall will the plant be the I’ll be receiving?** A: I purchased two of these and both where around 3’ tall and very healthy. Ficus grow quickly, especially in the summer if placed outside in a shaded area. So, if you want a big tree this will grow to be about 5-6 feet in about two years. **Q: how tall is it?** A: maybe a foot from soil to top. 18" if you include the pot. NOT 4 FEET! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Healthy plant, packed safely for shipping *by V***0 on April 4, 2019* I ordered this ficus and was unexpectedly out of town when it arrived.
