A fiddle leaf fig should be placed in a location in your home near a south-facing or east-facing window where it will receive plenty of bright, indirect sunlight throughout the day. Be careful not to place your plant near a cold or drafty window or door or anywhere near your heating and cooling vents. Fiddle leaf fig plants can be sensitive to environmental conditions that change too much. So, once you choose a spot for your fiddle leaf fig, be ready to commit to it; moving a fiddle leaf fig once it has become acclimated to a location in your home could stress and shock the plant, harming its health and stunting its growth.
