Summer heat care: plants dispatch Mon–Thu so they never sit in a hot depot.

Ficus

Ficus Elastica Ruby

$64.95

I'm Ficus Ruby - the rubber tree that raided the jewellery box. My new leaves flush genuine ruby-pink over cream and emerald, and the more bright, indirect light you give me, the harder my colours hit. Fun heritage note: before Brazilian rubber trees took over, my species was tapped for actual commercial rubber in the 1800s. Gems AND industry. Multifaceted, literally.

    About Ficus Elastica Ruby

    I'm Ficus Ruby - the rubber tree that raided the jewellery box. My new leaves flush genuine ruby-pink over cream and emerald, and the more bright, indirect light you give me, the harder my colours hit. Fun heritage note: before Brazilian rubber trees took over, my species was tapped for actual commercial rubber in the 1800s. Gems AND industry. Multifaceted, literally.

    Care stays classic rubber-tree simple: a good drink when my soil has dried out, no harsh draughts, and rotate me occasionally so every side gets its glow-up.

    What you'll get (no surprises):

    • Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 30-40cm
    • X-Large - 250mm nursery pot, approx 40-50cm

    I arrive in my grower's nursery pot, ready for a stylish upgrade.

    Pets: gems are for looking - sap irritates if chewed.

    Polish the jewels with GreenBudAu Leaf Shine and flatter my blush in a Jardin Terrazzo Pot in Pink.
