Care Tips for Ficus Elastica Shivereana
Fertilizer: 20-10-20 or 20-20-20 applied twice a week at 150 ppm- 175 ppm. Higher fertilizer levels may attract pests.
Light: 1300-2500 foot candles. Plant can take higher light levels as it ages.
Soil: Choose a peat-based media with good drainage for quick root development.
Water: The soil should be allowed to dry slightly between watering. On a scale of 1-5 moisture levels should remain as close to a 3 as possible.
Temperature: This product grows best in temperatures from 70°-85° Fahrenheit range. During the cooler months when the temperatures falls below 65 ° the plants will grow more slowly, and fertilization rates need to be reduced.
Disease & Pests: Aphids are a common pest on new growth. Overwatering can lead to fungus gnats and botrytis issues.

So excited to receive my shivereana! I’ve been hoping to add this to my collection for awhile. Arrived in great condition and gorgeous, and $100s lower than other sellers

I ordered 2 ficuses and even though it was below freezing temps, both arrived with very little signs of cold damage. They were shipped with tons of care and protection. The plants themselves were adorable and very similar to the pictures. Will definitely be buying more from this shop! 🙂
