They like bright but Indirect light and a moist soil of equal parts loam, sand and peat moss. An occasional misting or spong­ ing of leaves will help deter pests and provide extra humidity. Pigs come in various shapes and sizes. Among the most- elegant is the weeping fig or Ficus benjamina. Expensive in larger sizes, the weeping fig can be purchased small at a moderate cost or propogated by air layering or stem cut­ tings and groomed into a lovely indoor tree. Should leaves begin to yellow and drop, the plant may be ask­ ing for brighter light or more frequent misting. The larger the plant, the more humidity it will require. After two months in its new home, be­ gin periodic feedings of dilute fish emulsion.
