A VERY USEFUL CLIMBING FIG THAT MAKES AN EXCELLENT WALL SCREEN OR A CASCADING BONSAI OR INDOOR PLANT
GENUS FICUS PUMILA (SYN REPENS)

Ficus pumila (Syn repens), commonly known as the Creeping Fig is native to China, Vietnam, and Japan. It is a self-climbing root-clinging, evergreen perennial vine. It clings by aerial roots along the stem and has solid green leaves that are small, bright green and heart-shaped, small when young; increasing in size to 5 to 10 cm long when mature. It produces a droopy fig-like fruit, plum-sized and inedible.

It will cling to surfaces allowing you to hide an unsightly wall or to just soften the architecture and can grow up to 6 metres on a vertical wall..

Creeping Fig will grow in moderate shade or morning sun and works well as an indoor potted plant, as long as it has a sunny spot to sit in, although it is slower growing in the shade. It is frost hardy to about -10* C. The vine can be pruned to create shapes or patterns by simply cutting the stems. Pruning may also be necessary if tips/stems stray away from the surface they are climbing. Should a stem pull away from a tree or wall, the ends become progressively more woody.

With its tolerance of pruning this species makes a useful bonsai subject and is particularly suitable for a cascading style.
