Care Guide
- Light: Bright indirect light is essential to maintain the pink and cream variegation. Unlike the Burgundy variety, Ruby Pink needs more light — a north or low-light spot will cause the colors to fade.
- Water: Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil begins to dry. Avoid letting it sit in standing water.
- Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity. Average household levels work, but a humidifier nearby will encourage lusher growth.
- Temperature: Thrives between 60–80°F. Keep away from cold drafts and air conditioning vents.
- Soil: Well-draining potting mix with added perlite. Good drainage is key to preventing root rot.
- Fertilizer: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Reduce in fall and stop in winter.
Pro Tips
- Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep the variegation vibrant.
- Latex caution: Ficus elastica produces a milky latex sap that can irritate skin and is toxic if ingested. Wear gloves when pruning and keep away from pets and children.
- Rotate the plant every few weeks for even, balanced growth toward the light.
