+'''''Ficus pumila''''' ('''creeping fig''' or '''"[[climbing fig]]"''') is a woody evergreen [[vine]] that is native to East [[Asia]]. As the common names would suggest, it has a creeping habit and is often used as a [[houseplant]]. It is hardy and fast growing and requires little in the way of care as long as the soil is not allowed to dry out between waterings. There are several [[cultivars]], including a [[variegated]] and crinkled leaf form.

+In warmer climates it can be grown outdoors, but it can become invasive and cover landscape features if not contained. It should not be allowed to climb houses or wooden structures, as the woody [[tendrils]] can damage buildings.
