I’m Bindi the Wiandi Banyan, and native to Southeast Asia and the Caribbean. I have curly branches that support a dense canopy. I represent the wild side of Banyan strength and energy, and can take shadier conditions than most other Banyan trees. I'm considered the beginner's bonsai for my relatively easy care and can tolerate a wide range of indoor conditions.
I have a main trunk that divides into many branches that support a dense canopy. With enough humidity, I’ll sport aerial roots that hang from my branches. I’m comfortable grown as a houseplant, but also like nice days spent outdoors.
Keep me in temperatures between 55-80 ̊F. I like bright indirect light, and get watered about once a week, or when my pot feels about 1/2 lighter. To water, submerge my pot up to the rim for 20 minutes and let drain.
Symbolism: I'm highly regarded in Southeast Asia where you'll find me near temples and sacred places because of my strong spiritual significance. After attaining enlightenment, Buddha was believed to have sat under a Banyan tree for seven days, absorbed in his new-found realization. In Feng Shui, the Banyan's Wood element feeds Fire in the productive cycle, symbolizing the chance of continuous growth and enhanced wealth or success. Generally, the Banyan encourages stability and steadfastness in Feng Shui.
