The Ficus elastica ‘Robusta’ + ‘Tineke’ pack combines two timeless, highly decorative varieties—perfect for adding a tropical, sophisticated touch to interiors. ‘Robusta’ stands out for its large, glossy dark-green leaves—an iconic plant with a retro-chic look that brings to mind 1970s décor. ‘Tineke’ has a more exotic look, with variegated foliage in shades of green, cream and pink, creating a lush, very elegant contrast. ‘Robusta’ is ideal if you’re looking for a hardy plant with strong presence, while ‘Tineke’ adds brightness and a more distinctive, contemporary touch to your décor. They’re hardy, easy-care, low-maintenance plants—ideal for indoor spaces, as they help purify the air around them, making any space more welcoming and healthier.

CUIDADOS
Light: They like diffused/filtered light and don’t tolerate direct sun. The ‘Robusta’ variety will cope with lower natural light, while ‘Tineke’ needs brighter indirect light to thrive.
Watering: Allow soil to dry between waterings. Watch out for saucers with standing water and decorative pots without drainage holes, where watering water can stagnate unnoticed, leading to root rot.
Temperature: Ideal 15-24 ºC.
Fertilising: Fertilise in spring–summer, using a liquid fertiliser suitable for indoor/green plants. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the correct dosage and provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.
Not pet-friendly: This plant species is toxic to pets.
Fun facts: Besides being extremely decorative, easy-to-keep houseplants, they help remove toxins and improve indoor air quality.
