Fiddle Leaf Fig

This small lovely tree (actually a species of ficus) has large, dark-green leaves that seem to form the vague outline of a fiddle or violin -- that's how it gets its name.
The Fiddle Leaf Fig prefers moderate to bright light. If it is not receiving enough light, the plant will appear to be reaching as well as new growth will be limited or smaller than older growth. This houseplant requires moderate to low amounts of water. They tend to prefer to dry slightly in-between watering. This houseplant is semi temperamental to temperature. Normal indoor temperatures are fine, however do keep it away from drafts or heat sources.
