Ficus elastica 'Ruby'

  • Tropical tree or shrub with succulent, burgundy-tinged leaves having a deep-pink margin.
  • The new growth emerges with a more intense pinkish-burgundy colour.
  • Leaves and branches bleed latex sap when injured.

Care:

  • Light: Bright, with some direct sun (east or west window).
  • Water: Allow the top 30-50% of soil to dry between watering; avoid overwatering or allowing the soil to remain dry for an extended period.
  • Fertilizer: Use an all-purpose fertilizer such as Schultz Indoor Plant Food (10-15-10) once or twice monthly.
  • Other tips: Avoid placing near drafts or heat registers; leaf drop will occur if plants are stressed by temperature fluctuations or lack of light. Grows best in an undersized pot; use well-drained potting mix; we recommend Pro-Mix Tropical Plant Mix with extra perlite added.

*Please note we do not ship live plants. All plants must be picked up in-store or curbside.
