Small Ficus - Rubber Fig
Ficus elastica Burgundy - rubber plant. Oh the colour of these leaves - it's almost metallic! Deep wine-black-green big leaves and bright scarlet new stems make this a handsome easycare indoor plant for cooler climes, and an impressive shrub or tree in sub-tropical gardens
This potted plant sits roughly 15cm tall and comes beautifully giftwrapped
Care:
Lighting
Locate the “Burgundy” rubber plant in the brightest light available. Direct sunlight produces the darkest burgundy color on the leaves. This plant tolerates low indoor light, but the leaves fade to a light green color.
Temperature
This plant adapts to normal indoor temperatures, but grows slower than normal. The ideal temperature for the best growth is around 65 degrees Fahrenheit at night with daytime temperatures of 80 degrees or more.
Watering
This plant needs watering only when the soil becomes dry. Pour water into the top of the plant pot, and let it run out the bottom to soak the roots. Do not splash the leaves since this will cause stains. “Burgundy” rubber plants do not like waterlogged roots. During the winter, cut the watering schedule back to only every couple of weeks.
