Leaf types in the range
- Small-leaf green ficus: bushy shapes from 60cm to 180cm, including the dense 150cm ficus with 1,008 leaves. A neutral choice that suits most interiors.
- Variegated and red-green ficus: white-edged and two-tone leaves at 120cm and 130cm, such as the 130cm variegated ficus with silver planter, to lift darker schemes.
- Fiddle leaf figs: large, upright leaves at 120cm and 180cm, including the 180cm fiddle leaf fig, for a bolder, contemporary look.
- Rubber, money and other broadleaf trees: the 120cm rubber tree, money trees (pachira) from 70cm to 180cm, capensia, codiaeum and radermachera.
Heights for workplaces and receptions
- 90cm to 120cm: beside desks, sideboards and reception counters, or on low planters in meeting rooms.
- 130cm to 150cm: room corners and breakout areas.
- 180cm: nine lines for lobbies and higher ceilings; see extra large trees and the full tree range for taller options.
Planter options
Thirteen lines come with a separate metal planter in gold, silver or copper, which saves sourcing planters for a quick fit-out. The rest arrive in plastic weighted pots; choose a decorative planter from metal planters or match sizes with the plant and planter fit finder.
Fire-retardant and outdoor lines
Five lines in this collection are fire-retardant: an 80cm aglaonema bush, a 165cm nandina, and 180cm ruscus, retusa ficus and lychee ball trees. They are made from fully tested fire-retardant material; test details are on the fire-retardant hub, and see fire-retardant trees. Keep all trees clear of heaters, candles and naked flames. Only one line here is UV-stabilised, so treat the collection as indoor stock.
Using the table
Filter by height band and colour, and set the minimum stock to 50 or 100 when you are furnishing several floors or sites, so one line can cover every position.

Frequently asked questions
Is a ficus or a fiddle leaf fig better for an office?
Both work. Small-leaf ficus has a soft, bushy outline that suits most offices and reads well from a distance, and it comes in the widest range of heights. Fiddle leaf figs have large, upright leaves that make a bolder statement in modern, minimal spaces. Many schemes use ficus for volume and a few fiddle leaf figs as focal points.
Do the planter versions come with the planter included?
Yes. Thirteen lines are supplied with a separate metal planter in gold, silver or copper, so they can be placed on arrival. The rest come in plastic weighted pots, which keep the tree upright but are not decorative. Pot dimensions are on each product page to help you choose a planter that fits.
Are any artificial ficus trees fire-retardant?
Five lines in this collection are fire-retardant: an 80cm aglaonema bush, a 165cm nandina, and 180cm ruscus, retusa ficus and lychee ball trees. They are made from fully tested fire-retardant material, and test reports are available to trade customers on request. Your venue's fire risk assessment decides what is acceptable in each location.
Can artificial ficus trees go outdoors?
Treat this collection as indoor stock. Only one line in it carries the UV flag, and untreated foliage fades noticeably faster in direct sun. For outdoor or very bright positions, choose from the UV-stabilised range, which includes leafy trees such as ruscus, mango leaf and Japanese ficus leaf trees alongside topiary and palms.
How do I keep artificial ficus trees looking fresh in an office?
Dust regularly with a soft brush, microfibre cloth or a cool hairdryer, working from the top down. Every few months, wipe leaves with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, then let them dry. Reshape bent branches by hand after moves or cleaning. Clean leaves read as more realistic, especially under strong office lighting.
