If the leaves of your rubber tree start looking like this, you are the not so happy owner of a spider-mites infested Ficus Elastica. At the end of winter I do a little round through the house checking all plants on possible pests.

During winter the air contains less water and with central heating on air humidity drops even further. A warm but dry environment is perfect for spider mites. I caught those pesky mites early in the process. These are the youngest leaves which are affected first. I currently use neem oil to treat all my plants against any pests (check this post for more information on neem oil and a mixing ratio) so in the showercabin my ficus went. This is now two weeks ago and I haven’t spotted a single live mite since. Hopefully they stay away for a while.

I got Rubber fig, Monstera adansonii (swiss cheese ), and heart Fern I was little sad as Monstera came with black dots and torn leaf but we'll see how it goes

Rubber Fig/Rubber Tree

“Ficus Elastica”

I absolutely adore my Rubber Fig. Surprisingly he is very happy in the house and has quite the opposite of a leaf drop problem. In fact, he won’t stop putting off new leaves.

Best to photograph plants in pure and strong sunlight - noontime is perfect for this.

Rubber plant 🌱 one of most fashionable large house plants those days. ⠀⠀ It’s large but not too bushy what makes it a great exotic statement piece even for smaller spaces and on top of that it’s really easy to care for! I definitely understand the appeal 🥰🌿 . . . . . #rubberplant #ficus #ficuselastica #rubberfig #indianrubbertree #rubberbush #rubbertree #plants #plantlove #plantlover #plantsmakemehappy #livingwithplants #allthingsbotanical #houseplantcommunity #plantfocus #plantparenthood #houseplantclub #ihavethisthingwithplants #pottedplant #houseplants #houseplantsofinstagram #plantfriends #magicgarden #floristrywithstyle #floristinbedford #flowershop #plantshop #florist #bedford #bedfordflorist (at Bedford, Bedfordshire, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9CidFznozU/?igshid=1a2kdq1ccuym8
