This plant will grow best with bright, indirect sunlight. If your moclame does not get enough sun, its growth will be stunted.

Water to keep the soil moist, but never soggy. The ficus moclame does not like to dry out completely. If you notice your leaves drying out, check the soil! The leaves will sometimes perk right back up after a thorough watering. As with all houseplants, plant care begins with the soil. Ficus varieties need soil that holds moisture, but is also well draining. Without good drainage, the roots will rot and kill your plant. On the other end, a lack of water will cause leaves to dry out and drop.
