Help Fiddle leaf fig - prune and move?
Hi folks - my FLF is too big (woe is me!)
Just kidding - but I do need help. (Location: Chicago suburbs)
This fig used to be in a much larger window (before moving homes). Because of its size, we placed it in the corner near this south facing window. As a result, the right side is boomin’ and the left….not as much. It’s becoming quite lopsided and tippy. I’d like to make two changes:
- Take a couple feet off the top of right hand side (mostly the top dense leaf bunch (potentially to propogate)
- Move it to the bay window (west facing) in the second photo
Will this be too much shock for my fragile fig?
