8" Ficus Decora Ruby Pink

Ficus Decora Ruby Pink thrives in India and Malaysia, up to an immense and beautiful 50' tall. Fantastic, snaky, aerial roots grow from the branches to the earth with terrestrial roots crawling all over the soil surface. There's a lot going on. It also makes a splendid houseplant. Wide, oval, waxy leaves in shades of pine to sage greens have creamy patches and edges. The leaves are washed in a vivid, rosy magenta, most intense on the plant's newest leaves that fades to leave the greens and cream in oldest leaves. The bold, bright magenta midrib zips down the middle of each leaf. Baby leaves are lipstick rose points that uncurl slowly from the stem tips. Underleaves are washed in a coral blush. Achieving a more doable height of 6' to 7' indoors, growing in a solid, bushy, mini tree, the Ruby Pink is a glowing gem of a houseplant. So pretty.
