Common Names / Known As: Umbrella Tree Fig, Umbrella Fig
Brief Description: Ficus umbellata is an elegant, upright houseplant featuring large, heart-shaped, glossy green leaves that fan out like an umbrella, giving it a tropical flair. Native to West Africa, this lesser-known ficus species can grow up to 3-4 meters tall indoors with a slender trunk and airy canopy. Its striking foliage and adaptability make it a popular choice for modern interiors, thriving as an indoor plant in bright spaces while adding a touch of exotic greenery.
Quirky Fact / Common Use: Though native to Africa, it's especially beloved in Japan as a trendy houseplant symbolizing growth and resilience, and its umbrella-like leaf arrangement echoes the Latin "umbellata," referring to its clustered flowersrarely seen indoors but evoking a hidden tropical surprise.
