Its measured climate is strongly monsoonal: hot, wet summers and a pronounced dry season from December to March. Grow it as a warm, bright-light fig with a drier winter.

Where it grows wild

All 14 wild records are from Thailand, at sites from about 70 to 840 m. The sources reachable here give only its name and records; its habit (free-standing tree, shrub or hemiepiphytic strangler) was not confirmed, so conditions are built from the measured climate and what is typical for figs of this habitat.

Few records carry an elevation; climate sites run from about 70 to 840 m.
