Love the tips! It's one of my favourites! I'm going to be a copycat and will combine my ruby and tineke just like yours LOL!
Easily one of my favourites too! I actually combined two Tineke's together, but just encouraged the pink/reddish leaves - but I can imagine combining a ruby and tineke would look like such an amazing hybrid! Would love to see the results!!!
I just combined 1 4' tall tineke branch with 2 3' tall ruby branches, it looks so good together
Great Video!!
so refreshing to see a plant enthusiast from Australia make videos 🥰 so much more relevant to me !

Great tips! Your tineke looks amazing 🤩
Thankyou so much Phuong! I hope your ficus is doing super well - just in time for FICUS FRIDAY TOMORROW!
Such a healthy Tineke…❤️
Thankyou Miguel! Loving your collection, as well 💚
Thank u for share I love this plant too so beautiful and easy to take care
Thankyou! I really love this plant too - thanks for your comment and have a great rest of week! ☺️
Omg the same thing happened to both of mine. I bought a tineke and a dark green maroon ficus last year, and the leaves started dropping like crazy 😭 but now I put them outside since its summer and they both are growing like crazy now 😊.
That sounds amazing, Chelli! I do find ficus' absolutely love light, so they must be loving it outside in the summer. Happy to hear 😊🌱
Thank you for the pro hot tips!
No worries at all! I hope this video helped you and your Tineke out
Great information, you have helped me so I subscribed ‼️
Thankyou for subscribing Ruth! Hope you are well, take care ☺️🌱
This makes me want to buy a Ficus Tineke now!
Definitely should! They're super easy to care for as well 🙂 let me know if you have any other questions
Yes James!
Thanks Joe! ✊✊✊
Great video James! When I saw you started making videos I instantly thought youre the Aussie Crazy Plant Guy 🤣 and his video popped up straight after this one so I think it's a sign lol. Can't wait to see what other plants you've got too!
Oh my gosh, Lucy!!! HOW ARE YOU!? Amazing to see you on here, of course, I've just subscribed and would love to see more of your content! Thanks so much, I'm embarking on weekly uploads on some exciting plant content, so stay tuned! Thanks so much for commenting!
It’s so beautiful!!!!!
Agreeeeeeeeed!!! ☺️🥰🤩
How do you stop reverting plants ? I have one I just bought that’s well over half all green . Can j send you the pics on instagram?
@@saskbownb no worries - very simple answer is MOAR SUNLIGHT! Variegated plants tend to revert when they don’t get enough light, so it’s likely that the spot you’ve got your plant in, hasn’t got enough! ☺️
Love the tips and your accent!
Thankyou so much, Sarah! Sorry for the audio on this video 😅 was one of my first and still learning!
Very vert well explained 👏 I loved the way you explain 🤩🤩😘.......
Thankyou Ahmad! Really appreciate it - sorry the audio was a little bad in this 😅 was my second ever video and I was still learning how to shoot videos haha. If you're celebrating, merry Christmas and have an amazing new year!
@@simpleplanty Thank you for your reply. Keep it up buddy I randomly saw your video and I was impressed by your work 🤗🥰.
@@ahmadmughal1772 thanks mate! Really appreciate it. Have a great weekend 🤗
Wow amazing! Will be sure to let my partner know about your useful tips
Thankyou! Anytime - happy to answer any questions you may have :)
Very informative thanks for sharing bcoz I have 5 varieties of rubber plant it’s beautiful indoor plants and natural air purifying indoor plant 🥰
No worries, Meryln! Happy to help. I'm sure they're doing fantastic in your care, if you have 5 varieties! Key is plenty of light ☀️😊🌱
Amigo haz salvado mi tineke. Estaba tirando sus hojas y yo ingnorantemente pensé que era por falta de agua, gracias a tu recomendación la re ubique en un lugar donde le da la luz directa del sol por las mañanas y las hojas de mi tineke comenzaron a levantarse y dejaron de caeerse. Si no hubiera visto tu video la hubiera seguido regando hasta ahogarla. Sorry si escribo en español pero te agradezco bastante.
Very nice looking rubber tree plant 👍
Thanks so much Andy! It's seriously my pride and joy 🤣 hope you are staying safe and eating well!
@@simpleplanty 😉😉
@@andymujal6103 🙏🌱🤗
Just purchased mine today. It’s is even more beautiful in person. Maybe I missed how often you water it? Thank you for letting us know about the sunlight. I hope that I’m able to give it what it needs.
Amazing!!! Your watering schedule will highly depend on your environment / climate - as a rough guide only, I water mine once every 1.5-2 weeks, but it really depends. Give it a nice bright spot and it'll reward you for it 😊
So happy I found your page. Some of the edges of my tineke were brown when I got it. Do you think it was a lighting issue in the shop?
I'm glad you found me too! Thanks for your watching 😊 no stress, just give it some time to settle into your new home in a sunny bright spot (don't be alarmed if you get some leaf drop, even for a couple of months or so, totally normal while it's getting used to it) and let it dry between waterings. Let me know how you go 😊🌱
Also- hard for me to tell what the cause could have been from the shop without seeing it as browning can be from a number of factors, but no worries now that you've brought it home!
Hope you have a video on how to achieve darker color for Ficus Ruby/Belize... what is the right light requirements.. Thank you 😄
Hi Malou! I would say it's the same concept with a ficus ruby - trial it in a spot bright indirect light to medium and see how you go 😊🌱
@@simpleplanty Okidoki, thanks ❤️
@@malougervacio no worries 😊🌱
I have mine about 1.25 m from a south and east facing windows. it has been growing like crazy. do you know have to promote them to branch? I am so nervous to try and cut it if that's only going to stop it from growing.
Oh that sounds amazing if you've got yours growing like crazy! I wouldn't worry too much in that case, if anything, cutting it is only going to promote more growth from the point where you cut it, as long as it's happy and you continue doing what you're doing (as it sounds like you're doing the right thing!) Keep me posted 😊🌱💚
Do artificial light works on ficus tineke? Like the LED light used for growing plants?
Hi David - I personally don’t use them myself for the tineke but I have heard of people successfully using them! Not sure what your setup is like, but hopefully you have enough space for it to grow over time ☺️
@@simpleplanty ohhh… okay… thank you!! 😃
@@daviddavis4859 no worries David ☺️
How do you get it to be so full? I only have one tree growing
Hi Vickey - one of my nurseries was having a sale and sold one for $15, so I jumped at the opportunity and combined it with the one I already had at home. That way, it looks extra full! Hope that helps ☺️
Hi. How much watering does it need in a week?..
Hi! It will totally depend on your environment (placement, lighting conditions, airflow) - as a rough guide, I water mine 1.5(spring/summer)-2 weeks(winter/autumn) depending on the season
Ok
Ok 👌 🍀
my ficus tineke is bushy and the leaves is small. The leaves doesnt grow bigger anymore. Not sure what are my problems
How long ago was your last repot? I find that my leaves tend to get a bit smaller as it outgrows the pot and generally needs a nutrient refresh in the substrate ☺️🌱
Time to repot then
@@rebeccavictor4665 probably a good idea ☺️
Why is my ficus tineke rubber plant having black tips?
Hi Corine! Without seeing a photo, my best guess here is overwatering - I actually have my tineke more on the 'drier' side. Hope that helps! 😊🌱
That looks like rubby not tinike
Wish I could show you a photo of it nowadays - all the redness is gone and it’s definitely a tineke 😂
@@simpleplanty bc it has received too much sun it lost its variegation.ive heard low light and too much (direct light )is gonna fade its color.its still a rubby
Way too much talking. This video should be 2 mins tops
