Bold statement plant with large fiddle shaped leaves. The fiddle leaf fig grows best in a well-lit position if watered sparingly. Just like many other plants in the Moraceae family, this one doesn't like to be moved around too much. Sudden changes in temperature and light may cause it to drop its leaves. Fiddle leaf figs are slow growing but some do reach ceiling height in optimum conditions. As they grow the trunk becomes progressively thinner. Removing the growing tip encourages the plant to thicken and provide more support for the giant leaves
