This is a relatively new dwarf cultivar of Ficus lyrata that is already gaining attention as an ‘IT’ houseplant for contemporary living.
Ficus lyrata Bambino has an extremely compact, upright, branching nature; slightly smaller and thicker leaves compared to Ficus lyrata, but still with the same amazing fiddle-shape and somewhat lighter veining. They are ideal house plants, adding rich, green foliage and filtering the air of unwanted pollutants at the same time.
