Description
Amstel Queen Fig (Ficus binnendijkii) — 3.0 m
The Amstel Queen Fig is the sophisticated, low-maintenance alternative to the classic Fiddle Leaf Fig — and at 3.0 m, it makes an extraordinary statement in any interior. Its long, gracefully drooping leaves in deep olive-green give it a weeping, sculptural quality that suits everything from minimalist modern interiors to traditional Arabic majlis settings.
Unlike more temperamental figs, the Amstel Queen is forgiving, adaptable, and remarkably tolerant of indoor conditions — making it a favourite among interior designers and plant enthusiasts across the UAE.
Key Features
- Height: 3.0 m — a commanding indoor statement tree
- Leaves: Long, narrow, drooping — deep olive-green with an elegant weeping habit
- Form: Upright trunk with a gracefully cascading canopy
- Light: Bright indirect light; tolerates lower light better than most figs
- Water: Moderate — allow topsoil to dry between waterings
- Climate: Ideal for UAE interiors — air-conditioned spaces, atriums, lobbies
- Growth Rate: Moderate
Care Tips
Place in a bright spot away from direct sun and cold air conditioning drafts. Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and keep them glossy. The Amstel Queen is more stable than other figs — it won't drop leaves dramatically if you move it.

Plants Care
Watering:
Water your plant once a week or when the soil starts to feel slightly dry on the surface. Keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater, as this can cause brown spots and leaf drop. If the leaves become curly or dry, it's a sign that the plant needs water. It's best to water your plant in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. Always check the soil before watering.
Light:
Provide bright indoor light or indirect sunlight for about 6 to 8 hours a day.
Temperature:
Maintain temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts, as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations. Mist the plant occasionally, about twice a week, to help maintain optimal humidity levels.
Fertilizer:
Apply liquid fertiliser every 15 days when the plant is actively growing. For best results, use Folikraft ready-to-use Indoor Plant Food.

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! We ensure that every plant we send out meets two key criteria:
- We carefully inspect each plant for signs of root rot, pests, disease, and unhealthy foliage or stems. If we find any issues, we don’t ship the plant. This meticulous care ensures that every plant is healthy and ready to thrive in its new home.
- We ask ourselves if we’d proudly display the plant in our own homes and if it matches the online photos. If both answers are yes, we ship it. However, if you're not happy with your plant, we offer a hassle-free replacement within 14 days of delivery.
Yes, we strive to match the appearance of the plants shown online. While natural variations in color, shape, and size are to be expected, we do our best to ensure your plant closely resembles its online image.
Your plant will arrive in its nursery pot to ensure safe transportation. We recommend leaving it in this pot for at least 6 to 12 months to acclimate to your home’s environment. For succulents, which acclimate faster, we may replant them before shipping.
Consider the following:
- Light: A bright, indirect light spot offers more plant options than a shady area.
- Time: Some plants need minimal care, while others require more attention.
- Style: Choose plants that match your aesthetic, whether tree-like with large leaves or vining varieties.
