With dark evergreen foliage and vigorous, compact, upright growth habit, Ficus Tuffy is an ideal choice for hedging, screening, and topiary work. New, bright green foliage emerges in spring, contrasting nicely against the mature darker green leaves.
Perfect in the garden as a topiary subject or for a more structured look, create boxed layered hedging behind a smaller shrub such as our Buxus Green Gem.
The Ficus tuffy is very versatile and hardy shrub which and can be planted almost anywhere surviving with a little sun and well drained soil. The Ficus tuffy is a little frost tender when young; establish gardens early in the warmer seasons. While adaptable, the Ficus tuffy is suited to warmer climates.
