Notes
'Audrey' fig (Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey') is a tree for containers. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It stays evergreen and grows at a moderate pace with an erect habit. Bees visit the spring blooms, and the plant tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Banana, Arabian jasmine, and Sedge.
