Rubber Plant Green (Ficus Elastica) 4" Pot

Ficus elastica  is a popular indoor plant with large, glossy deep green leaves.

Lighting: Grow in medium to bright light. If they don't get enough light, they'll grow slowly and have long stems, giving the plants an unattractive, lanky appearance. 

Watering: Water ficus when the top inch or so of the potting mix starts to feel dry to the touch. Ficus are quite resilient and survive inconsistent watering, but grow best when they get moisture on a regular basis. 

Fertilization: Fertilize ficus once or twice a year in spring and summer, when temperatures are warmer and plants are putting on more growth.
