Ficus 'Yellow Gem' is a variegated form of rubber tree. It has softly variegated thick green leaves with large splotches of yellow and slightly pointed leaves.
It has an upright growth habit and has similar growth and care requirements to the classic Ficus lyrata, so is a great option if you have less room available.
Keep out of direct sunlight to avoid scorching of the leaves.
Care tips:
Water when the soil starts to become slightly dry at the top. Keep the soil lightly moist at all times, but do not overwater as this will cause leaf drop.
The Yellow Gem rubber tree does well in normal household temperatures but will thrive in a slightly warmer environment. Avoid cold draughts. Moderate to fast-growing.
Rotate regularly 90-180 degrees every few weeks to ensure even access to sunlight and to promote symmetrical growth
Warning:
Considered poisonous due to the latex in the sap, therefore keep away from children and animals or anyone with latex allergies or asthma symptoms.
