Ficus elastica 'Ruby'
This eye-catching variegated rubber tree is an easy choice. It's easy to care for and grows quickly during the spring and summer. Leaves are dappled in shades of red, green, and cream and grow on stem-like branches that will become woody as the plant matures.
Bright, indirect light. Can also handle some direct light.
SM: ~12" tall and a 4" pot.
MD: ~13-17" tall and a 6" pot.
LG: ~4' tall and a 10" pot.
Some plants are bushier than others.
Pro-tip: If foliage is losing its colorful variegation, try higher light levels.

A couple months ago I purchased a Tineke in a 6" pot to go with my burgundy rubber tree at home and he has lost some leaves and over all threw a fit, but that did not stop me from ordering Miss Ruby! I wanted to add her to my rubber tree collection as well. Miss Ruby is twice the size and very pretty. She has crazy roots too, one coming out the bottom of her pot is over a foot long.. so I will most likely be repotting her in the near future. I was a little sad that her newest leaf was slightly taller than the box she was shipped in so it ended up broken.. but over all I am very pleased with how pretty and large she is!
