Description
With the Ficus Tineke you get a dramatic look without the fuss. Flourishing in bright, indirect light and slightly moist soil, this plant thrives effortlessly. You can bid farewell to watering worries, as this low-maintenance gem is remarkably drought-tolerant, meaning you can get away with a missed watering here or there. We prefer placing this plant near a window where it can get some soft morning light but avoid the afternoon’s harsher rays as too much direct sunlight can scorch its colorful leaves. Keep in mind, pet owners, that the Ficus Tineke, like its rubber tree relatives, is not safe for furry companions. Although its leaves alone create a compelling statement, with dedicated care and time, your Ficus Tineke can gracefully grow to a remarkable height of up to 10 feet.
