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.

    Tasty, effective, and helpful against thrush
    Flavor Name: Citrus Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    This is a good plastic-free, portable form of mouthwash. Pop one or two tablets in your mouth, chew well, add a little water if your mouth is particularly dry (mine is), swish, and spit. That's it. They don't burn like regular mouthwash, and they leave a nice flavor that isn't overpowering and that lasts longer than other mouthwashes have for me. It's a balanced flavor, if that means anything to you - basically, my mouth somehow feels right afterwards. I was skeptical about the claim that these improve the mouth microbiome, but they've virtually eliminated the thick white layer (presumably thrush) that I've been fighting to clear off my tongue forever. So, yeah, these are definitely a winner.

    More like a mint candy than mouthwash.
    Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    Hard to describe this product. Does it work like your typical mouthwash? No. Does it leave your mouth feeling minty and fresh? Yes, to a certain extent. Would I consider this an alternative to mouthwash on a consistent basis? No, it's ok for traveling because it's easy to transport. When you chew this tablet, it has the texture and feel of a traditional mint. It's chalky and breaks up easily.

    Not a fan of this one
    Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    I am not a fan of this product. As many of the reviews noted, the flavor is very strong. I was surprised it wasn't more minty. This is a very herbal concoction. It also tastes of the other very strong herbs, especially the rosemary. According to the instructions, this product should be used once a day for 30 seconds. I prefer a product I can use twice a day for 45 seconds to a minute. My experience is that it takes 30 seconds just to crush it up enough to swish it around and I don't have enough saliva in the morning due to overnight dry mouth. I have to add a little water. The tablets never crush completely and leave a mess in the sink that has to be carefully rinsed away. If I use them more often, my mouth dries out too much and tastes like the tablets all day long. It's not a bad taste but I expect it to go away after a half-hour (or so). They are really chalky. The container isn't bad, but doesn't pour 1 tablet out at a time. Meh. I don't like touching a bunch of them each time. There is a desiccant packet in with the tablets to protect them. I am not sure this would stay closed during travel or be allowed on a plane in carry-on. It should travel ok otherwise because it's not a liquid, but I haven't tried it. I will probably not buy this product again, but in all honesty, I have bought far worse products and been disappointed far more by them.

    Its like they knew what I prayed for🙏🏽
    Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    Okay, let me start by saying I am a huge skeptic. I need to research things to the nine's and read legit reviews before I buy anything new. I have had cavities from a very young age and receeding gumlines all my life. At age 50, I have gone all natural, got rid of everything toxic, and got really healthy. I have been listening to Dr. HUBERMAN podcast on you tube and found one he did on oral health. He gets very detailed about how to heal your oral health. He spoke specifically about hydroxyapetite and xylitol and their benefits. I then started searching for mouthwashes with these ingredients because i am seriously concerned my teeth are going to fall out from these receeding gums. I have been told all my life there was nothing you can do. I knew in my gut that was a lie. I knew there had to be a way to heal our mouths naturally. Then found BOKA. I got them. I tried them. I lOVE THEM! They are perfect! They are minty fresh, easy to use, makes my mouth feel clean and if they actually do heal my mouth....then awesome sauce! I read all the reviews. I see the after taste. But, i think its a personal choice. I like the after taste. It tastes and feels like a clean mouth. I feel the tinglyness. Yes. But I believe from my health and science background it is the mint, aloe, probiotics and everything else stimulating the skin and blood to start the regeneration of skin and mineral. Im happy to report back again in a month or so with outcome plus before and after photos👍🏽
