I ordered a Kentia Palm from Oxy-Plants. I chose Oxy because they were by fair the best value for money and the most efficient in processing and delivering my new plant baby. I ordered on the Thursday and it arrives on the Monday.I was half expecting the plant to be dehydrated or lost its zest for life. HOWEVER, I couldn't have been more wrong; dark healthy green leaves, beautiful shape to the body of the plant and all planted in a fairly moist post of potting compost.Wrll done Oxy, you've got a customer for life in me now! 😁

It's the first time that I shopped for indoor plants at Oxy-Plants and I'm thrilled with my purchase . Both the money tree and kentia palm arrived in a huge box, very well packed. They even arranged the delivery for my preferred day. The plants look strong and healthy and they were very well priced as well. Highly recommend this very friendly small business!

A good selection of plants and just what I was looking for. They were despatched quickly but due to a problem with the courier I had to wait longer than expected for them. That was disappointing. Overall customer service was good. More care needs to be taken by the courier service as when the plants did arrive the box was on its side at the back of the van.

I ordered this plant well in advance of an Anniversary and requested it be delivered as close as possible to the day. This happened and the recipients appear to be very happy with the plant.

Four really well packed large plants arrived in one box with only one leaf lost! The order was a bit delayed but only because they were awaiting better quality stock. Good prices too considering other online plant companies.

I purchased a Lucky Bamboo plant and when it arrived the plant was in absolutely great condition. Even better than I had originally anticipated. However, the pot the plant came in was broken despite the protective package. It's most probable that the pot was broken whilst in transit.Upon contacting Customer Services, the representative was friendly, efficient and prompt in resolving the issue.Therefore, I will definitely be making further purchases and would highly recommend Oxy - Plants.

How To Care For Weeping Fig ‘Danielle’

Allow the top third of the doil to dry between watering. Weeping Figs have delicate root systems so don’t use cold water when you do top them up and make sure the water drains out of the pot to help prevent root rot. If you’re a first-time plant parent, read our watering plants guide. You won’t regret it!

During the spring and summer, put it in a brightly lit spot away from any direct light. Excessive exposure during this time will negatively affect the plant in the likes of sunburn and dehydration. When it gets to autumn, put the plant on a spot where it can get an hour or two direct light per day to get it through the dormancy period.

Keep your weeping fig in a stable, humid environment. Consider using a pebble tray (or frequent misting) for optimum conditions. Signs of an under-humid room are primarily similar to inconsistent fluctuations, with slowed growth, browning leaf-tips and leaf loss. Never put in a cold drafty spot, like near doors or windows, as it can’t tolerate cold temperatures.

The weeping fig really thrives in rich, fast-draining soil. Remember, these trees are used to the warm and wet woodlands of tropical Asia. If you are unsure as to what soil may be needed to top up your pot, get in touch with your local garden centre or DIY shop!

The weeping figs love a little bit of fertiliser every now and again! You can use houseplant feed or general plant fertiliser once a fortnight in spring and summer. Generally speaking, Nitrogen dense fertiliser is perfect for these indoor plants as this will ensure your foliage is continually thriving. Feed the plant once a month during autumn and winter. We recommend you use some of our Miracle-Gro® Push & Feed All-Purpose. If you have never fertilised a Weeping Fig “Danielle”, make sure you read our guide to using fertiliser!

Check the plant occasionally for spider mites, mealybugs, aphids and scale. If your plant becomes infected, order some of our neem oil natural insecticides. Simply, spray until the problem desists. If you think your Weeping Fig “Danielle” has been infected, you can diagnose this using our pests and diseases guide!

If your plant becomes root-bound (the roots are reaching the bottom of your nurse pot) then it may be time to re-pot your weeping fig! The process for repotting is really easy. Just find yourself a hip and trendy pot that is two inches larger than the pot you own. Then, repot in with some new soil and voila! you’re sorted. We have a handy repotting guide if you have never repotted your plant before.
