- Botanical Name: Ficus elastica
-
Common Name(s): Variegated Rubber tree, Ficus Elastica 'Tineke', Rubber plant
- Description: Native to tropical regions of India and Malaysia, Ficus Ruby 'Tineke' is a hardy, vibrant evergreen plant with green-yellow and white variegation. Care is similar to other rubber plants, but the variegation requires more light than the 'Burgundy' variety. It won't do well in low light spaces, so place in bright indirect light. Water to keep soil moist at all times. Ficus elastica is a source of latex that is toxic to the skin, and poisonous if ingested, so pet-owners and those allergic to latex should be cautious.
- Ficus Tineke will never disappoint you if you want a beautiful, low-maintenance houseplant. Generally, Ficus Tineke prefers dappled light for 6-8 hours, 55-95°F temperature, and 50-65% humidity levels. Apply liquid plant food monthly and water every 4 days in spring and summer, with annual or biennial repotting and pruning in spring.
