Ficus Pumila

Ficus Pumila Variegata, or Variegated Creeping Fig, is a classic self-clinging wall climber that has green leaves with white margins. Its attractive heart-shaped leaves remain dark green in colour with showy white variegation throughout the year. This is a great plant for container gardens or terrariums. Although it is a profuse grower, it is easily pruned to keep under control. The small leaves give it a somewhat miniature look and it is often used in fairy gardens and make a great houseplant as it will cascade down the side of the pot.
