Hi Elaine, Many thanks for your detailed direction/tip on caring fig. After reading your response, I went to water my fig a bit (always worry watering too much) and spread (mist) its leaves. I'll do wet wiping the leaves tomorrow (is using alcohol acceptable?). I do have some metal trays good for the humidifying purpose, but no idea of getting which kind of pebbles and where?

The bathrooms in my house have no window, no light at all. It's a BIG NO there: I almost killed a nice 10" pot of Boston fern in there! (saved by moving it to a lighter room) So, now I can open up window blind more and let in more light, right?

I was hoping the fig would grow indoor at least half as outdoor. Is that even possible?
If a plant looks good, smells good, don't eat it, grow it!
