Pigment Ficus Elastica

The variegation depends entirely on light. Place your Ficus in a spot with bright, filtered light to keep the colors sharp; if the plant is moved to a lower-light area, the leaves will likely revert to a solid, darker green.

Check the soil moisture before watering. You should only water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, which prevents overwatering and root issues.

No, the Ficus Elastica Ruby is toxic to pets if ingested. We recommend placing it on a high shelf or in a room that your cats or dogs cannot access.

It arrives in a standard 6-inch plastic nursery pot. This allows you to easily drop it into a decorative vessel or planter of your choosing that matches your home decor.

It is quite manageable. As long as you can provide a bright, indirect light source and stick to a simple watering schedule based on soil dryness, it is a very rewarding plant for most indoor environments.
