Ficus pumila, commonly known as creeping fig, is a small, evergreen vine native to East Asia. It features small, heart-shaped leaves that can cling to surfaces, making it a popular choice for covering walls and fences. This plant can grow in various conditions, thriving in both sunny and shaded areas. Creeping fig is often used in landscaping for its ability to create lush green coverage. It can tolerate a range of soil types but prefers well-drained soil. While it is generally low-maintenance, regular pruning may be necessary to control its growth and prevent it from becoming invasive.
