It will get bigger, some ficus varieties grow to 6 to 10 feet. I am pretty sure this is a Tineke.

Step away from the fiddle leaf fig unless you know how to care for it. 😏

They will grow! #1 will grow much, much, MUCH slower than #2.

it will grow pretty slowly, but only if you let it. almost every plant gets huge but not everyone has the conditions to support it. if you just give it mediocre light and don’t repot frequently it will certainly take a while.
Mine was that same size or a tiny bit smaller when I got it 5 1/2 years ago and now it’s this size! It’s my favorite of all my plants and I can’t believe how big it’s grown. It actually needs to be up-potted since last year but I have to stunt the growth because I don’t have the space for a literal tree 😂

They are both trees… if cared for properly they can both get quite large (probably larger than you want them to get). You can always trim them though. My advice is to trim the top tip regularly to promote lateral branching.

2 years. This is what the FLF does.
When I got this ruby rubber tree, it was the size of yours. This is 6 months later under a grow light.

Inside, they will get as big as the space allows, if they’re happy

Both are technically trees, so under the right conditions they can grow very large

Good luck.
