Ficus elastica "Tineke" (Variegated Rubber Plant) Large
Ficus elastica tineke 300mm – Variegated Rubber Plant
About: Cream tipped edges and varying hues of green variegation on the body of the leaves. As if painted camouflage by a pacifist who loves Margiela. These are beautiful plants. Expressive and fun. I like to think of the Tineke varietals as the pop art of the indoor plant world.
Size: Large
Pot Width: 300mm
Height: 1.7m
This is a floor plant.
Care: Easy.
Light: Low to bright indirect.
Water: Water once a week until water is flowing from drainage holes. Drain excess water to make sure plant is not sitting in a tray of water.
Humidity: If your space has dry air due to constant heating or air-conditioning, a refreshing mist between waterings will make the plant happier. Natural Sydney levels of humidity treat this plant well. Wiping the leaves of dust occasionally with a cloth and water is a good way to aid in photosynthesis. Using a neem oil dilution in this process will protect the plant from bugs and increase leaf shine.
Food: To keep plants at their best the potting mix needs to be replenished with nutrients. A good water soluble houseplant fertiliser in your watering can once a month in the spring and summertime should be enough.
Plant is delivered in black plastic grow pot.
