ADA LC978 - Ficus pumila 'Quercifolia'

Ficus pumila ‘Quercifolia’, sometimes called String of Frogs or Miniature Oakleaf Fig, is an adorable dwarf evergreen houseplant with tiny, bright green leaves that resemble frogs or oak leaves. The leaves remain under 1.3 cm in size and grow along trailing stems, forming a dense, low mat of foliage.

This charming plant prefers a warm, humid environment with bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate very low light conditions. Ideal for window hanging baskets, terrariums, or miniature fairy gardens. Avoid direct sunlight entirely—north or east-facing windows are best. Use well-draining soil and keep the soil consistently moist. Protect from freezing temperatures.
