  • Hello, I'm a passionate Australian plant parent who loves sharing what I learn along the way. I'm no expert, but I do like documenting what I learn through trial-and-error. I hope you enjoy this instructional video on watering the Rubber plant - Ficus Elastica ROBUSTA (edit), Ficus Elastica 'Burgundy', and Ficus Elastica 'Ruby'.

    I just got a small rubber plant ruby. I killed one before so I’m very cautious to keep this one healthy and happy. I’m so happy to see a new leave shooting out! Thanks for your tips.

    I have a ficus tineke and it has browning edges and some leaves have dropped. I don't suppose you have any tips on how to diagnose that? When people say stick the finger in the top 2-3 inches, doesn't that depend on the size of the pot? A small plant with 5 inch depth should not be using the same generic test as a mature plant in a pot with 15 inch depth for example.

    I have a green plant, trying to figure out why some of the leaves have a rusty colour look in the centre of the leaves ( also rough texture ), one leaf even turned orange before I removed it. Any ideas?

    Great advice, thanks! Recently purchased a rubber tree plant. It is about 4 inches in height, planted by the nursery in a large glazed pot. I would like to water from the bottom up. The glazed pot has a draining plate, very shallow. Should I remove the planter from the shallow plate below the pot and water it in a larger bucket to ensure it gets enough water?

    • @plantspoetry
      @plantspoetry  3 года назад

      Hi Skye, Yes I think that's a good idea! Simply because sometimes if the bottom of the glazed pot has 1 hole, it becomes very difficult for the plant to drink enough water via bottom watering. Sending your rubber tree plant happy growing vibes !!

      Hi Allison, As long as your rubber plant is receiving bright indirect light from a window somewhere closeby, i'm sure it'll be happy :) I find that my rubber plants are superrrrr slow growing too!! at times.. there's no new growth for months!

    • @plantspoetry
      @plantspoetry  2 года назад

      Hi Lalee, mine too!! I found that I had to check that there was enough lighting, thorough watering infrequently, checking for any opportunistic plant pests, or potential root problems. I know it's vague but sometimes it helps just to check through those things! Hope your rubber plant recovers

    I think we have the same issue in tineke. Thay happens to me also the browning of edges. Do you know what it is? I change the soil but it continues to spread in edges. Can you give me some tips

    • @plantspoetry
      @plantspoetry  3 года назад

      Hi Dale Allen, Yes! Mine kept getting brown too. It was due to me putting it right by my window and even though it was morning sun, it was still too strong for the white sections of my plants. So I eventually changed the plant position to a better location with only bright indirect light. Eventually those brown leaves just dropped off, but the new ones haven't got any browning anymore. If you've changed soil, and are watering consistently, my next advice would be to check the lighting. Hope this helps~

  • @iRoxy19

    Is it the same rule for rubber trees kept outside in the summer? Water until dry? Or keep it moist? Also, are they ok in direct sun?

    • @plantspoetry
      @plantspoetry  3 года назад

      Hi iRoxy, if your rubber tree lives outside in the summer in a pot, I'd say it'll be pretty happy getting watered more frequently! I put mine out in the summer, under direct rays of sunlight, and the leaves got scorched >< But then after about 6 months the plant became more tolerant of the sun :)) Sending your Rubber Plant happy growing vibes

    Hi plant and poetry my ficus tineke has drooping leaves but I don’t know why it’s dropping. It look healthy, it’s not root bound, I always water when the top inch is dry like you mentioned, it gets morning sun then I move it to a place where is bright. Do you know what might be wrong. I have a feeling that the leaf is heavy that’s why it’s dropping because the trunk is like a stick.

      Hi Florence, I happen to live in a very warm tropical environment, where the humidity is around 50-60%. Most Rubber Plants will do well with higher temperatures/humidity, but they're also pretty tough plants to kill haha! Hope yours grows to be beautiful and lush!
