Ficus Elastica 'Ruby'
Ficus elastica ‘Ruby’, also known as the Ruby Rubber Plant, is a striking and highly sought-after variegated form of the classic Rubber Tree. Its broad, glossy leaves feature a bold mix of deep green, creamy white, and vibrant pink-red tones, making it one of the most colorful indoor statement plants available.
This variety has a sturdy, upright growth habit and can reach impressive heights indoors, adding vertical interest to any room. With proper care, its vibrant foliage becomes more pronounced, especially when placed in bright, indirect light. Lower light may cause the pink and cream variegation to fade, while too much direct sun can scorch the leaves.
The Ficus elastica ‘Ruby’ is not only a luxury ornamental plant but also known for being relatively low-maintenance, making it perfect for plant enthusiasts and interior designers seeking a bold splash of color in modern living spaces.
