Ficus elastica 'Ruby' --Variegated Rubber Tree--

Gorgeous variegated shrub with deep green and red-to-white striped leaves. Commonly known as the Rubber Plant, is a splendid choice for bringing cheer and joy into your indoor space. With its glossy, dark green leaves that can grow quite large, this plant adds a touch of tropical lushness to any room, instantly lifting the ambiance with its vibrant presence. Known for its air-purifying qualities, the Rubber Plant not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your home but also contributes to a healthier environment. Growing it indoors is relatively straightforward; it thrives in bright, indirect light but can adapt to lower light conditions, making it versatile for various indoor settings. Remember to water it moderately, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot, and you'll be rewarded with a robust, happy plant that seems to smile back with every new leaf it unfurls. Pot size will restrict growth and it is also tolerant of pruning, but expect a large, dramatic houseplant! Brighter light brings more red out of the leaves, but full sun can scorch. Protect from frost, water well but infrequently (flush watering).
