Easy Care Guide for Ficus ‘Ruby Pink’
Light
Bright, indirect sunlight will help the leaf colors to flourish and brighten, creating that signature ruby glow.
Watering
Keep a steady watering schedule — avoid letting the soil dry out completely, but also don’t overwater. Inconsistent watering can lead to edema (moisture stress), causing leaf damage.
Plant Stress & Leaf Drop
It’s normal for this Ficus to drop some leaves when moved or adjusted to a new environment; this “shock” is temporary. Find a stable spot with plenty of light, and it will bounce back.
Nutrition & Growth
If you notice new leaves struggling to fully open or develop, consider adjusting light exposure or providing a gentle nutrient boost.
Origin & Unique Character
Native to the tropical climates of India and Malaysia, the Ficus ‘Ruby Pink’ is a charming and slightly delicate member of the rubber tree family. While it may be a bit finicky at first, once it settles in the right spot, it quickly becomes an eye-catching staple in your home.
Why Choose Ficus ‘Ruby Pink’?
-
Air Purifying: Improves indoor air quality by filtering toxins, making it perfect for bedrooms or living spaces.
-
Decor Appeal: Its vibrant pink-red foliage adds a bold yet soothing pop of color to any décor style.
-

Important Considerations
-
Pet Safety: Not safe for pets — keep out of reach of curious cats and dogs.
-
Ideal Placement: Thrives in living rooms, bedrooms, or offices where it can get bright, indirect light.
Is the Ficus ‘Ruby Pink’ Right for You?
If you want an attractive, relatively low-maintenance plant that brings both color and air-purifying benefits, this Ficus variety is an excellent pick.
