Characteristics
The Ficus Shivereana, or Moonshine Ficus, is a hybrid of the rubber plant (Ficus elastica) that is prized for its unique leaves. The leaves are a bright lime green with dark green freckles, giving them a marbled appearance. The leaves are also slightly wavy, which adds to their beauty. The plant can grow up to six feet tall indoors, but it is a slow grower.
How to Care for Ficus
- Light: Bright indirect light
- Water Preferences: Allow the soil to dry somewhat between watering. Prefers periodic deep watering over frequent shallow watering.
- Special Care/Notes: The strength of light the plant is placed in affects variegation pattern and color. If the leaves begin to drop, try moving the plant to a brighter area and make sure no cold drafts are present.

"I brought my girls here to have a homeschool lesson about botany for their science study! We had one of their employees, Evan, walk us around the center and take us into the greenhouses. I felt like he went above and beyond to help my girls with what they need to know and it was great! My kids had a great time and he knew what he was talking about. Thanks again Evan!"
