Ficus Elastica Overview

Description:

The Ficus elastica, commonly known as the rubber tree or rubber plant, is a popular houseplant known for its large, glossy leaves and its relatively easy care. 

Grow Zones:

Ficus rubber trees are typically grown as indoor plants in most regions, but they can be grown outdoors in USDA hardiness zones 10 to 12. In these zones, the climate is warm enough year-round for the rubber tree to thrive outdoors.

Height and Width:

Height: Indoors, it can grow to 6-10 feet (1.8-3 meters), while outdoors, it can reach 50-100 feet (15-30 meters) in its natural habitat.

Width: Indoor plants typically spread about 2-4 feet (0.6-1.2 meters), but outdoor plants can have a much wider spread.

Growing Tips: 

Light:

Indoors: Place the rubber tree in a spot with bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sunlight, but too much can scorch its leaves. Low light conditions can lead to slower growth and leggy stems.

Outdoors: If grown outside in suitable zones, it should be placed in a location with partial shade to protect it from harsh midday sun.

Soil:  Ficus plants prefer well-draining soil. A mix designed for houseplants or one you prepare with garden soil, peat, and perlite works well.

Watering:  For indoor ficus, water thoroughly, then allow the top 1-2 Inches of soil to dry out before watering again. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so make sure the plant is not sitting in water.  For outdoor ficus, water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid waterlogging the soil.

Temperature:  Ficus plants prefer temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F (13°C), as this can cause leaf drop.

Humidity:  Ficus plants enjoy higher humidity levels. If grown indoors, misting the leaves or using a humidifier can help during dry seasons, especially in winter when indoor air tends to be dry.

Fertilization:
Feed ficus plants with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months when growth slows.

Pruning:  Prune ficus plants to maintain shape and remove any dead or yellowing leaves. For bushier growth, you can trim the ends of the branches.

Repotting:  Ficus should be repotted every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one Size larger, and refresh the soil.

Propagation:  Ficus can be propagated by cuttings. Take a healthy stem cutting with several leaves, dip it in rooting hormone, and place it in moist soil or water until roots develop.

Pest Control:  Keep an eye out for common pests like spider mites, scale, and mealybugs.  Wipe the leaves regularly with a damp cloth and use insecticidal soap or neem oil if needed. Yellowing leaves can indicate overwatering, while brown tips may suggest underwatering or low humidity.

Low calorie and great for dog training
Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 3), Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 3)
A trainer recommended these for training and our dog loves the taste. They are small and easily handled. There are some larger/longer pieces that can easily be broken in half. With these I am not worried about her spoiling her dinner or gaining extra weight. They don't have much of a smell and being dry, my hands stay relatively clean. She has no problem chewing them as the texture is firm but soft being freeze dried. It can be easy to go through them quickly which made buying the three pack an easy decision.

Great for training
These are a great option for training sessions with my young puppies and fit a lot in a training pouch for accessibility. There are a lot of treats for what you pay.

Small quick treat
Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great treats. My boys loved them. They do vary in size and quite a few crumbs were left over in the bottom of the bag. No smell and they are not chewy, but cruchy because of the freeze dried process so I know they will hold up over time. Some pieces were thick but not hard. Being that these are freeze dried treats, the longevity should be great!

Absolutely The Best!!
Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Our dog (Aussie/Border Collie) has a sensitive stomach and these work great for her! She loves all the flavors (especially salmon and turkey & veggies) and at only about a calorie each, it's pretty much impossible for her to over eat. These work GREAT for training treats, too!
