Ficus care is relatively simple. Most Ficus plants prefer bright indirect light. Make sure your plant is in a well draining soil rich in organic matter and allow it to dry out almost completely between watering. Take care not to place your Ficus near a cold window or near a heat or air vent.
Fun fact: The scientific name for Ficus tineke is Ficus elastica and they are commonly referred to as a "Rubber tree"!

4" Ficus tineke
I received a perfectly healthy rubber plant with new growth at the top. It was so healthy it hasn't shown any signs of shock!
This plant was way larger than I expected… I mean I know they grow large, but the plant I received is like 8-10” tall with huge leaves… its beautifully perfect…with new leaves emerging….
This is my first focus plant. Love it! Beautiful and healthy. And you can’t beat the prices! Highly recommend
