    What I noticed is that’s where the new leaves come from. Then eventually it’ll fall off. Sometimes they don’t.

      She’s doing fine. Might want to clean her leaves though. Just so she can absorb light better.

      Here’s mine. Both those leaves are coming out same time. The brown came first then the leaves.

    They’re the little bits that grow around the new leaves, they don’t always fall off.. but they’re harmless 😁👍🏻

    It’s a leaf sheath- ficus plants use these to protect the sensitive new leaf when it first emerges. They naturally dry up and detach. Most FLF and other ficus owners will remove them once in a while for a “cleaner” look to your plant. No harm either way. In nature these would probably fall off pretty quickly from wind, rain, critters, etc.

      Ahh That’s what they’re called! My daughters bonsai ginseng ficus does it too.. I just gently flick them off when they’re crispy 😂
