Ficus Elastica Burgundy
Our Ficus Elastica Burgundy is the perfect addition to any home or office. This stunning easy-care houseplant stands out with its deep burgundy foliage and tree-like appearance, bringing a touch of nature's beauty into your space. When properly cared for, this plant can grow to be quite large, up to 2m, creating a real statement.
Positioning your Ficus Elastica in bright indirect sunlight is key to success, so that it doesn't receive too much of the hot sun. Luckily it doesn't need a lot of water and prefers a free-draining soil mix so is tailored to those with little experience in indoor plant keeping. With all the beauty and ease of care, the Ficus Elastica Burgundy is a go-to for any indoor plant lover!
