Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a dwarf form of Ficus lyrata, reaching a height of 80–120 cm. The plant has a slow growth habit and maintains a bushy shape.

The leaves have a characteristic lyrate shape, a glossy surface, and a dark green color with light veins. They are thicker than those of the original species, and the leaf petioles are significantly shorter, measuring about 2 cm.

The plant is susceptible to spider mites, mealybugs, and soil waterlogging, which leads to a risk of root rot. In case of insufficient lighting, the variety is prone to stretching.
