She’s a beauty, I love the coloration!! Congrats! Here’s some good info for you, just fyi. 🪴💕. To keep your Ficus elastica 'Shivereana' vibrant and healthy, follow these essential care guidelines: ☀️ LightBright, indirect light is absolutely critical. Place it near an east- or west-facing window. Avoid direct sun, which burns the pale leaves. Low light causes it to lose its unique speckling and turn solid green. 💧 Watering- water only when the top 2 inches of soil feel completely dry. Drench the soil thoroughly until water runs out the bottom. Empty the saucer immediately so the roots never sit in water .Reduce watering frequency during the slower growing winter months. 🌡️ Environment- maintain temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Keep it away from cold drafts, air vents, and heaters. It appreciates moderate to high humidity (above 40-50%). Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth monthly to remove dust and improve light absorption. 🌱 Soil & Fertilizer- use a chunky, well-draining potting mix (e.g., standard soil mixed with perlite and orchid bark). Feed with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half-strength once a month during spring and summer. Do not fertilize in winter.
