Ficus Elastica 'Tineke' Variegated Rubber Plant

Soft, sculptural, and quietly breathtaking.

The Ficus Tineke is the rubber plant reimagined in the most elegant palette imaginable — broad, waxy leaves painted in creamy white, pale green, and soft blush pink, each one emerging from a rosy pink sheath before unfurling into something genuinely beautiful. Upright and architectural in form, it brings warmth and sophistication to any interior without demanding much in return.

A plant that looks expensive, behaves impeccably, and gets more beautiful with every new leaf.
