– Ficus elastica Abidjan – Abidjan Rubber Plant Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Go big or go home! Ficus elastica can grow up to 30ft tall. When desired height is achieved, simply cut the top off.
Insufficient light can trigger leaf drop! Find a more suitable location and your plant should quickly recover.
Sticky latex will ooze from the ends of the cut stems. This can be an irritant, so make sure to wash your hands afterwards.
Light
Ficus elastica Abidjan prefers bright, indirect light but does cope quite well in lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight as this may scorch the leaves.
Watering
Keep an eye on the water meter. Water when the meter has been on minimum for 7 to 10 days. Thirst can trigger leaf drop. Check out our HydroCare set up guide for more information.
Temperature
Elastica Abidjan does well in normal household temperatures, but prefers slightly warmer conditions: around 16-24°C. Avoid cold draughts.
Humidity
This Ficus has no specific humidity requirements, although it will benefit from an occasional misting. For an added boost, consider moving your plant to a steamier room such as a kitchen or bathroom.
Feed
Add a Hydroculture liquid feed every 2 to 3 waterings during the spring and summer months.
Height & Growth Rate
A moderate to fast-growing plant which often reaches around 60m in their native environment. Indoors it can be trimmed to maintain a desired height, and usually grows to a height of 30cm-2m.
