Plant Care:

Ficus 'Ruby' thrives in bright, indirect light, which is essential to maintain its vibrant leaf colouration. In low-light conditions, its variegation may fade, and the plant could become leggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot. It prefers average room temperatures between 18–24°C and may benefit from occasional misting. Typically, Ficus 'Ruby' will grow to about a meter but can exceed this height under optimal conditions, although its growth is slower compared to other Ficus varieties.
