The Rubber Fig is well-recognized as a low maintenance ornamental plant. The "Tineke" still has that same easy-to-care-for qualifies but with gorgeous green, white, and occasional pink variegation. The only thing you must be cautious of is that this version is not as shade-tolerant as the non-variegated form. Yes, the "Tieneke" can survive in lower light, but you will start to notice the white and pink portion disappearing as known as "reversion.
CARE:
- This plant thrives in consistent bright, indirect sunlight. A few hours of morning or late afternoon sun is beneficial, but avoid prolonged exposure to direct afternoon sunlight (during the peak summer months), which can scorch the cream-coloured portions of its leaves.
- Rotate every few weeks to avoid a leaning appearance and to help achieve even variegation and growth if foliage
- Allow the first 1/3-1/2 of the soil to dry between waterings-This plant hates wet feet, so do not maintain soogy soil.
- Does best with moderate humidity, but it can adapt to regular household humdity.
