Ficus elastica 'Tineke'
Introducing the Ficus elastica 'Tineke', a stunning Rubber Plant variety originating from Southeast Asia. This foliage plant is celebrated for its striking variegated leaves, adding a touch of elegance to any indoor space. It thrives in bright, indirect light but can adapt to lower light conditions. To maintain its vibrant appearance, ensure consistent moisture with a well-draining potting mix, allowing the top soil to dry slightly between waterings. Regular pruning helps manage its shape and size. While beautiful, it's important to note this plant is mildly toxic to pets.
