Size and Growth:

Size: Grows up to 2–8 feet tall indoors, depending on care, with leaves reaching up to 12 inches long.

Growth: This plant grows vertically and can be pruned to maintain your preferred height and shape.

Pet Friendliness:

The Ficus Elastica Burgundy is not pet-friendly. It contains a milky sap that can be toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. Keep this plant out of reach of curious paws to ensure a safe environment for your furry friends.

Care Instructions:

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight but can adapt to moderate light conditions. Avoid direct sun, as it may scorch the leaves.

Watering: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so always ensure proper drainage.

Humidity: Prefers average to high humidity levels. Consider occasional misting or placing a tray of water nearby to boost moisture.

Temperature: Keep between 16-24°C. Avoid cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.

Soil: Use well-draining potting soil. A mix of peat, pine bark, and perlite is ideal.

Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
