Ficus elastica Ruby Variegated Rubber Tree 4 Inch Pot

The Ficus elastica Ruby Variegated Rubber Tree has garnered mixed feedback from customers regarding its health and vitality upon arrival. While some buyers were pleased to find that their plant arrived in great condition, appearing healthy with vibrant colors, others reported significant issues shortly after purchase. One customer experienced a sharp decline in the health of their plant, which was ultimately affected by spider mites, leading to a battle to save the plant that left it in a poor state. Unfortunately, this customer noted that both plants died after the infestation affected their existing healthy plant as well. Another reviewer expressed dissatisfaction with the state of their plant upon arrival, describing it as wet and lacking in leaves. They noted that even though a new leaf was present, it was poorly developed and almost entirely cut off. This indicated a lack of attention to detail in the plant's care before shipping. Comparatively, they found better satisfaction with a different company that offered a less tall but leafier and healthier option. Overall, the experience with the Ficus elastica Ruby Variegated Rubber Tree seems to vary greatly depending on individual cases, highlighting potential issues with pests and plant health management prior to delivery. **
