Product Description

Ficus elastica is the classic Rubber Tree, Rubber Plant or India Rubber Plant. Native to India and Malaysia, elastica is among the oldest plants used as houseplants worldwide. As a houseplant, Ficus is very popular. Able to adapt to and endure lower light conditions and generally poor treatment, The Rubber Tree is a winner indoors. Provide as much light as possible, keep away from cold and drafts in winter, keep soil lightly to moderately moist with good drainage. Most any soil will be fine and largely sandy soils mixed with some organics are ideal. Light fertilization is best. Ficus elastica 'Tineke', "VARIEGATED RUBBER TREE" - Nice selection of this tropical, evergreen tree; large, shiny leaves attractively marbled cream, green & gray-green; indoor or summer patio site, outdoors in mildest Inland areas.

    Better than I expected!

    I ordered a Ficus Elastica Tineke the night of July 11. It arrived July 14 packaged carefully. One lower leaf had a bit of brown on it, but it was in good condition all around. The soil was covered in moss, which was unexpected, but not negative. The tree itself is so much more beautiful in person! It was very cream and pink, with much less green than pictured. I wish I would've ordered one or two more of these. I love it.
