Ficus Benjamina Starlight (Variegated Weeping Fig)

Elegant, timeless, and full of tropical charm — the Ficus Benjamina Starlight is a striking variegated variety of the classic Weeping Fig. Native to Southeast Asia and Australia, this plant is prized for its graceful, cascading branches adorned with glossy green and creamy-white leaves that shimmer beautifully under light. Its variegation gives it a soft, luminous quality that instantly brightens interiors while maintaining a refined, natural look.

The Starlight variety grows up to 1–2 meters indoors, often trained into elegant shapes or braided trunks for added aesthetic appeal. It brings both structure and movement to any setting — from minimalist apartments to lush indoor jungles. Known for its resilience, the Ficus Starlight thrives in partially shaded areas with bright, indirect light. It enjoys consistent moisture and moderate humidity but dislikes overwatering or sudden environmental changes, which can cause natural leaf shedding.

As with other Ficus varieties, this plant is also recognized for its air-purifying properties, helping remove indoor toxins and promote cleaner, fresher air.

At Acacia, every Ficus Benjamina Starlight is nurtured under ideal tropical conditions in our UAE farms, ensuring each specimen exhibits perfect variegation, lush foliage, and vibrant growth — making it a living statement of elegance and tranquility.
