- Planting:
- Choose a location with full sun to partial shade. The Pyramidal Fig adapts well to various soil types, provided the soil is well-draining.
- For container planting, use a large pot with drainage holes and a well-draining potting mix.
- Watering:
- Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
- Once established, the plant is drought-tolerant and requires less frequent watering.
- Pruning:
- Regular pruning is essential to maintain the pyramidal shape of the canopy. Prune to remove any overgrown or dead branches and to preserve the narrow, conical form.
- Shape the plant carefully to ensure it maintains its elegant, structured appearance.
- Fertilizing:
- Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support healthy growth and maintain the shape of the canopy.
- Avoid over-fertilizing, which can lead to excessive foliage growth and potential nutrient imbalances.
- Pest and Disease Control:
- Monitor for pests such as scale insects, spider mites, and mealybugs.
- Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil as needed.
- Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal diseases like leaf spot and root rot.
