The fiddle leaf fig tree might be on the fussier end of the houseplant spectrum, but with a bit of gentle plant parenting, it pays style dividends. Its large paddle-like leaves are a great way to add visual interest to an empty corner and, ensuring you find the perfect balance of light, humidity, and water, it will continue that way for years to come.
It's the latter of these requirements where owners often falter, however. When it comes to watering, this popular houseplant is pretty high maintenance. Fail to find the right regime or give your plant an adequate drink and you'll soon notice your fiddle leaf fig leaves drooping.
