Please note that the height of Ficus may vary by 10cm. This is measured including growing pot.
Ficus Elastica Tineke is also known as the Indian Rubber Tree. Indeed, until the 20th century, Ficus was an important source for the extraction of rubber. The Elastica Tineke is related to the Ficus Lyrata and counts more than 1,000 different species that you cannot immediately tell belong to the same family. Most Ficus species originate from tropical Asia.
The Ficus Tineke bush is not a difficult houseplant to look after. However, it is sensitive to new environments. Should Ficus grow to one side, do not move the plant all at once but turn it a little every day. In case of major changes, the plant may drop its leaves.
Always try to keep Ficus' soil slightly moist. If the houseplant is placed in a light spot, it will need more water. Feel for each watering. Is your Ficus repotted? Always use a moisture meter or water gauge!
The Ficus Tineke bush loves light. This houseplant really needs daylight to develop. If the Tineke stands in a dark place, no new leaves will grow. Be careful during the summer months, though, as direct sunlight can become too intense. During this period, move the plant to a spot with less direct sunlight per day.
Ingestion of the plant is strongly discouraged. The sap contained in the plant can cause skin irritation. So be careful with this plant in combination with small children and pets.
This Rubber Tree is delivered in a cultivation pot. All our houseplants are shipped in specially designed shipping boxes. Due to the unique interior of the shipping boxes, the houseplants stand firmly in the box and cannot move. Houseplants don't mind spending a day in a dark box. This way, we make sure your green friends are delivered to your home in tip-top order.
