Ficus Elastica Ruby

Ficus Elastica Ruby

Description: Ficus elastica 'Ruby' is a striking variegated cultivar of the popular rubber plant, known for its vibrant, multicolored foliage. This plant typically grows to about 2-3 meters in height when grown indoors and can reach up to 6 meters or more in outdoor conditions, though it can be kept smaller with regular pruning. The leaves are large, oval-shaped, and glossy, with a unique combination of pink, green, and cream variegation. Foliage: The standout feature of Ficus elastica 'Ruby' is its stunning, variegated leaves. Each leaf has a mix of dark green, pink, and creamy white, with the pink hues being particularly prominent on new growth. The leaves are thick, leathery, and can grow up to 30 cm long, creating a lush and colorful appearance that adds a tropical touch to any setting. Growth Habit: This plant has a sturdy, upright growth habit with a single trunk that can develop aerial roots over time. It is relatively fast-growing under ideal conditions and can become quite large if not pruned regularly. However, it can be easily maintained as a smaller, bushy plant with occasional trimming. Cultivation: Ficus elastica 'Ruby' is versatile and can be grown both indoors and outdoors in Australia, depending on the climate. It thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. When grown indoors, it prefers a well-lit spot away from harsh, direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch. Outdoors, it should be planted in a sheltered position with partial shade. Soil: The plant prefers well-drained, fertile soil. A high-quality potting mix with good drainage is ideal for container growth. When planting in the ground, ensure the soil is well-draining to prevent root rot. Watering: Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's important to avoid waterlogged conditions. During the growing season (spring and summer), keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Reduce watering in winter when the plant's growth slows down. Pruning: Pruning can be done to maintain the desired shape and size. Remove any dead or damaged leaves and trim back overgrown branches to encourage bushier growth. Pruning can also help control the plant's height if space is limited. Pests and Diseases: Ficus elastica 'Ruby' is generally pest-resistant but can occasionally be affected by common indoor plant pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects. Regularly inspect the plant and treat any infestations promptly with appropriate insecticidal soap or neem oil. Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal issues. Uses: This versatile plant is perfect for use as a statement indoor plant, adding a touch of tropical elegance to any room. It can also be used in outdoor landscapes in frost-free areas, where it can grow larger and serve as a focal point in the garden. Ficus elastica 'Ruby' is also popular for its air-purifying qualities, making it a beneficial addition to indoor spaces. Care Tips: Place the plant in a location with bright, indirect light. Water thoroughly but allow the topsoil to dry out between waterings. Use a well-draining potting mix or soil. Fertilise monthly during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser. Wipe the leaves regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them shiny. By incorporating Ficus elastica 'Ruby' into your home or garden, you can enjoy its vibrant, multicolored foliage and low-maintenance care, enhancing the aesthetic appeal and air quality of your space Ficus elastica 'Ruby' Botanical Name: Ficus elastica 'Ruby' Common Name: Ruby Rubber Plant Family: Moraceae Origin: Native to Southeast Asia; cultivar developed for ornamental use

Galvanised Edging x 2.4m Lengths

AUSTRALIAN MADE GALVANISED STEEL EDGING – AN AFFORDABLE AND DURABLE EDGE. Our Australian made BlueScope®, hot dipped Galvanised steel edging has a structural guarantee of 10 years, ensuring your confidence when purchasing and installing FormBoss™  in your garden. Galvanised steel will appear shiny and spangled when first purchased, however after a year or so the shine will dull down to a matte grey, all though you will still be able to notice the spangled effect. Galvanised steel edging blends in very well, as grey is a neutral colour and doesn’t take the focus off the plants and lines of the garden, it creates flawlessly separated contrasts in your design. To get the most out of your Galvanised steel edging be sure to pick up some cold galvanised spray paint to cover the areas you screw or cut as doing this during the installation exposes the inner metal which needs to be covered to protect the longevity of the edging. If you notice some surface rust from being nicked with the mower or whipper snipper we recommend using a wire brush to brush down the area, ensure it’s dry, and then coating the areas generously with your cold galvanised paint.
