Description:

Ficus Tineke is a stunning variegated cultivar of the Rubber Plant (Ficus elastica), known for its thick, glossy leaves with a mix of green, creamy white, and pink hues. The pinkish undertones on new growth make it a favorite among plant collectors. It is a hardy, low-maintenance plant that thrives in indoor environments.

Growing Requirements:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light but may lose variegation. Avoid direct sun exposure, which can scorch leaves.
• Watering: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
• Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but adapts to normal indoor conditions. Misting can help in drier climates.
• Temperature: Thrives in warm temperatures (65-85°F or 18-29°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature drops.
• Soil: Well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, and sand.
• Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during spring and summer. Reduce feeding in winter.

Propagation:

• Can be propagated through stem cuttings placed in water or soil.

Uses:

• Ideal for indoor spaces, adding a touch of elegance with its unique variegation. Also suitable for office environments and patios in warm climates.
