Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’, also known as the Banyan Fig ‘Audrey’, is a sophisticated tropical tree celebrated for its velvety green leaves, pale trunk, and graceful, architectural form. This special twisted stem version adds an artistic, sculptural element to an already regal plant, creating a living statement piece that exudes refinement and organic elegance.

Native to India and Pakistan, Ficus benghalensis is the national tree of India and revered for its strength and longevity. The ‘Audrey’ cultivar, with its more compact habit and soft-textured foliage, has become a beloved interior design favourite. Its elliptical, deep-green leaves are accented by creamy-white veins and velvety undersides, giving them a subtle matte finish that contrasts beautifully with the smooth, light-grey bark. The twisted stem form adds movement and texture, showcasing skilled horticultural artistry and a true sense of botanical luxury.

Elegant, commanding, and full of character, Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’ (Twisted Stem) is more than a plant — it’s a natural sculpture that brings tropical sophistication and serenity to any curated space.


Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’ (Twisted Stem) – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate a few hours of gentle morning or late-afternoon sun. Provide consistent brightness to maintain healthy growth and leaf colour. Avoid harsh midday sunlight, which can scorch the velvety leaves, and deep shade, which may cause sparse foliage or slowed growth.

Watering

Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Ficus species prefer consistency — alternate extremes of drought and overwatering can lead to leaf drop. During winter, reduce watering slightly, allowing the soil to dry more between waterings. Always ensure the pot has adequate drainage.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers warmth between 20–30 °C; avoid temperatures below 15 °C and cold draughts.

  • Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity (40–60%) but thrives in moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally or use a humidifier to maintain supple leaves and prevent dryness.

Soil and Potting

Use a well-draining, fertile mix, such as compost combined with perlite and pine bark. This ensures airflow while retaining gentle moisture. The twisted stem form should be grown in a stable, weighted planter to support its structure as it matures. Repot every 2–3 years in spring, refreshing the soil to encourage healthy root development.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a diluted, balanced fertiliser or a foliage-specific formula. Regular feeding promotes lush growth and vibrant leaf colour. Stop feeding in autumn and winter when growth slows.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune lightly to maintain shape and encourage a fuller canopy. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves at the base. Clean the leaves gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and highlight their velvety texture. Rotate the pot occasionally to maintain an even canopy and balanced growth around the twisted trunk.

Growth and Maturity

A moderate grower, Ficus benghalensis ‘Audrey’ can reach 1.5–2.5 metres indoors when given adequate light and care. The twisted stem form provides additional visual interest, creating a dynamic, sculptural silhouette. Over time, the pale trunk thickens, and the canopy expands into a dense, tree-like form that feels both grounding and elegant.

Common Issues

  • Yellow leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Leaf drop: Low light, cold exposure, or sudden environmental change.

  • Brown tips: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Pests: Occasionally scale or thrips; treat promptly with neem oil or insecticidal soap.


Background and Benefits

Ficus benghalensis is a sacred tree in Indian culture, symbolising eternal life due to its ability to form new trunks and aerial roots that expand over time. The ‘Audrey’ cultivar, however, is a more compact and manageable version suited for indoor growth — maintaining the grandeur of its wild ancestor while thriving in bright, indoor environments.

The twisted stem form showcases expert horticultural training, where multiple young stems are intertwined as they grow, producing a sculptural spiral trunk that adds unique movement and artistry. Beyond its visual impact, Ficus ‘Audrey’ is also an effective air-purifying plant, filtering toxins and improving air quality while enhancing a sense of calm and biophilic beauty.

    Great entertainment for kittens too!
    Color: Blue
    My kittens love this toy and play with it more than my dog. I bought it on sale. I am impressed with the quality, ease of use, and I rarely need to charge it.

    Finally, a Toy That Out-Works My Dog!
    Color: Blue
    My dog gets bored easily, and this automatic moving ball has been a hilarious and effective distraction. It bounces and rotates on its own, which triggers her hunting instinct immediately. The rope chew attached to the side is a nice touch for some added teeth cleaning while she plays. It’s sturdy enough for a medium-sized dog and the fact that it's waterproof means I don't have to worry when she eventually drops it in the water bowl or takes it out into the melting snow. The *only* issue I have is it starts before I can even screw it back together. It wants to jump out of my hands before I'm ready.

    My dogs think this is either terrifying or amazing
    Color: Blue
    I got this interactive dog toy thinking it would turn my living room into a fun little chase arena for my two small dogs. Technically, it did create excitement, but not in the way I expected. The toy rolls around unpredictably and wiggles its rope like it is trying to escape, which is honestly hilarious to watch. The movement is surprisingly energetic and the different speed modes keep it from feeling repetitive or robotic. The battery life is decent and it charges quickly, so it is easy to keep it ready for playtime. Now for the comedy... my one year old Silky Terrier is normally the fearless one. He charges vacuum cleaners, interrogates delivery boxes, and believes he is the head of household security. However, the moment this toy turns on and starts moving, he suddenly remembers he has very important business somewhere else. He will sit at a safe distance and stare at it like it might file a police report against him. The funny part is that when the toy is turned off, it instantly becomes his favorite object in the house. He happily grabs the rope, drags it around, chews on it, and proudly carries it like a trophy. Apparently his bravery only applies when the toy is not alive. I have discovered that in my house this is considered the acceptable mode of operation. My seven year old Yorkie is even wiser. She took one look at the moving toy, processed the situation for approximately three seconds, and decided she would absolutely not be participating in whatever nonsense was happening on the floor. She calmly walked away and has maintained that policy ever since. She clearly understands this toy and wants no part of it. Overall the toy is well made, entertaining, and definitely capable of keeping energetic dogs busy. Even if your dogs end up like mine and treat it as either a suspicious creature or a decorative rope toy, it still provides plenty of entertainment for the humans watching the situation unfold. If your dog enjoys chasing unpredictable moving toys, this one will probably become a household favorite. If not, you may at least get a very funny show out of it. 🐶
