A few steps back from a south-facing window often works well; east- or west-facing light is usually gentle enough. If the plant starts leaning toward the light, rotate the pot slightly every few weeks for even growth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCare tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an even, healthy look, keep the leaves clean: dust reduces the plant’s ability to photosynthesise and dulls the natural sheen. Wipe leaves with a soft, damp cloth as needed. Use a well-draining potting mix, and consider repotting when roots begin circling the pot or pushing through drainage holes. As with many ficus, consistency matters—avoid frequent changes of location and protect it from sudden temperature drops.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plant is shipped directly from a Netherlands grower to ensure freshness and plant health during transport.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePlant information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Live indoor plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies \/ variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ficus elastica ‘Abidjan’ (rubber plant)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate size at delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e ↕ 60 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePot size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ø17 cm nursery pot (decorative pot not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MEERgroothandel Planten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53040798007639,"sku":"28970","price":59.85,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/4552\/4311\/files\/093eef51-3b11-414e-b58b-a2552c4e0600_1200x1200_fill.jpg?v=1773782169","url":"https:\/\/emirelle.com\/products\/ficus-elastica-abidjan-rubber-plant-green","provider":"EMIRELLE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
