Quick Guide

  • Classic foliage houseplant with large glossy leaves

  • Makes a gorgeous indoor tree

  • Perfect plant for a bright sunny spot

  • Mesmerizing variegated foliage, a combination of cream and muted greens

  • Grows to great heights in right conditions

Ficus elastica or the rubber plant is seen in many indoor settings across the country- from houses to restaurants, offices and hotels due to its low maintanence and big impact nature.

Ficus 'Tineke' is a gorgeous cultivar with striking cream/ green variegated foliage and lush leathery new growth. In summer months they can be quite thirsty but in winter, depending on how warm the environment is its best to leave dry. 

The rubber plant is a fantastic houseplant that really doesn't require too much attention- occasionally rotate your plant for even growth all round (if more light is on one side) and wipe the leaves clean of dust for a healthy happy Ficus.

Plant Care

  • Keep in a bright sunny spot

  • Allow to dry between waterings

  • Avoid overwatering as the plant will suffer

  • Spray with a houseplant mist feed for humidity. Avoid using tap water as this can leave limescale marks- not harmful just unsightly and can be wiped off
