Aloha! Join me as I explain the three methods to promote branching on a Ficus tree of any kind, including Fiddle Leaf Figs, in order to create a more bushy plant appearance. I also show you step by step how to use the notching method to create side shoots using my own Ficus elastica as an example. Along the way, I cover the pros and cons of the various methods, the success rates with each method, and provide useful tips and tricks for improving the success rate when using notching. This same notching method can be applied to any woody stemmed plant to create a fuller looking houseplant. 🪴
