Fiddle-Leaf Fig AKA: Ficus Lyrata ‘Bambino’, Little Fiddle Plant… Meet Little Fiddle, a new dwarf variety that tops out at about three feet tall and wide, less than half the size of a regular fiddle-leaf fig. Its compact proportions enable the Little Fiddle plant to add eye-catching lushness to your home. Light: Little Fiddle plant is relatively easy to take care. Just make sure your plant gets plenty of bright, indirect light. Water: Try to water regularly letting the top few inches of the soil dry out before watering again. Once in a while, dust off your Little Fiddle’s broad leaves with a soft cloth. This helps the plant collect as much light as possible and keeps it looking clean and fresh.
