About this product
Description
Bring a beautiful touch of tropical colour into your home with the Ficus Tineke Rubber Plant, an attractive evergreen indoor houseplant admired for its large, glossy leaves featuring elegant cream, light green and deep green variegation.
Its broad, leathery foliage displays distinctive creamy margins and contrasting green patterns, while emerging leaves may reveal delicate pinkish tones. The combination of soft ivory and rich green creates a naturally decorative appearance, bringing colour, texture and botanical character to living rooms, offices, conservatories and contemporary interiors.
Measuring approximately 55–70cm tall, including the growing pot, Ficus elastica 'Tineke' is available in a 17cm nursery pot or as a 2L plant with a decorative ceramic container or decorative bucket. Its naturally upright growth habit and strong stems create an attractive architectural display in modern and traditional homes.
Ficus Tineke thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and warm indoor conditions. Relatively straightforward to maintain, it prefers well-drained houseplant compost, moderate watering and average to moderate indoor humidity. Providing sufficient indirect light helps maintain its distinctive green and cream variegation.
