Weeping Fig (Ficus benjamina) 

Ficus Benjamina evergreen weeping fig is a tree looking plant that grows to around 1 metre tall (when in a pot). They grow well in a warm position but also tollerate quite cool temperatures in side so keep them indoors if you can. They have great uses including offices and homes, they can also be made into a bonsai because of their miniature tree look.
