Brighter Blooms - Braided Benjamina Ficus Tree, 3-4 ft. - No Shipping to AK, AZ, HI, OR

Update - all the leaves fell off and I called the hotline - not super helpful but started to water a lot more and it seems to be coming back to life so maybe extra water if it’s not doing well Very nicely packaged and pretty as described/ pictures. Losing a lot of leaves so I’m hoping I can help and I don’t blame the seller - not something you plant and forget

I was surprised at how good this tree looks. Bought for my son’s apartment and he loves it. It arrived in great condition. The braided trunk makes it very unique and my son says he is asked about that often.

I got my braided benjamina ficus end of December. Beautiful size, very expensive. The issue was that all the leaves in the middle were dry and dead. I thought it was due to being winter and since plants have a dormant stage (usually during cold months), I got a growing light and kept it on a warmer corner of the house. Plenty of light, water every 2 days and good fertilizers. February comes, all dry/dead leaves fell and all I have left are a very few healthy branches and a gnarly mess in the middle. At this point I'm not sure it will ever grow. What I'm sure of, is that it wasn't a good purchase. First time I have this type of issue with plants. Very upsetting seeing the price I paid for it.

This is my second ficus tree. The first one started small and became big and beautiful. It has been several years since I had to give the tree away because of its size. I am so glad that I once again own a ficus tree. It has a great braided trunk, and a lovely full {top}?. I have had the tree for about a week since it arrived more than a week early. It is still in its original soil, as instructed, and will be transplanted soon. It is covered in new, light green leaves and is living on my patio in partial shade in the morning and full shade the rest of the day. I couldn't ask for more - except I may buy another one! Thanks so much!

Healthy and beautiful. Looking forward to watching it grow.

I've ordered a lot of plants online and it's honestly a gamble. So, I was happily surprised when the tree showed up looking great. I've had this type of tree before and as long as the get light and water - they're happy.

It's a beautiful tree however upon arrival one side looked damaged to me with a large bare spot broken branches and no sign of potential new growth. Called seller, sent photos and was told the tree looked healthy and to give it time which I have and still no new growth. For the price I expected more. Disappointed ~

Having owned many Fiscus trees in my lifetime, I know from experience that they can be temperamental. They let you know right away if they don't like their location...the draft...lack of light...all the things that cause many prople to get one made of plastic! From the moment I opened the box, I knew this was going to be a good experience. The tree arrived in excellent condition...still moist, no yellow Leaves and no droppers either. I got it out of the box, watered it with liquid Miracle-Gro and put my LED grow lights on it. The next day it was doing so well, I repotted it! In 48 hours it has grown 8 inches and kept every single leaf! I will be ordering a couple more soon!
