GROWING TIP:
To keep the beautiful variegation and pink tones of your Ficus Tineke vibrant, place it in a spot that receives plenty of bright, indirect sunlight, as too little light will cause the plant to produce solid green leaves. Water only when the top few inches of the potting mix feel completely dry to the touch, and regularly wipe the large leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and ensure maximum light absorption.
