Ficus Elastica is evergreen tree, which can be a wonderful decoration for any interior, as it has a spectacular unusual appearance due to large glossy leaf plates. However, the growers choose this stunning plant not only for its beauty. It is able to saturate the air in the room with oxygen, cleanse the air of harmful impurities as well, and fill the home with favorable energy. It grows best in bright spots with no direct sunlight, obligatory for dense foliage. Water the plant with approximately 1 glass of room temperature water when the top few inches of soil seem to be on drier side to the touch (about once a week depending on the growing conditions). Don’t let the plant sit in soggy soil. Ficus Elastica is shipped in 4” pot. The plant prefers high level of air humidity. Ficus Elastica must be watered systematically, and moistened with a sprayer. It doesn’t stand drafts, which have negative effect on the plant. Feed the plant with a balanced liquid mineral fertilizer during growing season once in two-three weeks. The feeding is reduced in winter till once a month. The height of the plant shipped varies from 12” to 14” which is measured from the bottom of the pot to the very top of the plant. The width of the plant is between 4” to 6”. The repotting of the plant is made once in a few years in the early spring, since the soil can lose all its useful properties during this time. The pot should be just a little bigger. Your plant may look little different from the advertised; however, be assured, we handpicked our plants to meet your expectations.
