Ficus Elastica Shivereana Care Guide
Light:
Prefers bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sun is suitable, but avoid harsh direct afternoon sunlight which can damage the leaves.
Water:
Allow the top half of the potting mix to dry before watering again. Avoid overwatering, as consistently wet soil can lead to root issues.
Humidity:
Enjoys average household humidity. Gently wipe leaves regularly to remove dust and maintain their beautiful natural shine.
Temperature:
Thrives in warm indoor conditions between 18–26°C. Protect from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes.
Soil:
Use a free-draining indoor plant mix with added perlite or similar drainage material.
Feeding:
Fertilise monthly during the active growing season to support healthy foliage and growth.
