Care Guide
The Ficus Elastica Abidjan, more commonly known as Caoutchouc, is a plant that is rather easy to care as long as you respect a few basic rules. Avoid overwatering it. Stagnant water at the bottom of the pot could cause serious damage. Avoid cold draughts, it hates them. For watering, use water at room temperature and whose chlorine has evaporated. Let the top soil dry between waterings. Remove the decorative moss beforehand to avoid wetting it. Water in 2 times, spaced about 10 minutes apart, so that the soil absorbs the water well. Spray the foliage of your plant regularly to increase the humidity level. Clean the foliage once a month with a soft cloth and diluted black soap. Rotate the pot a quarter circle at this time to promote smooth growth. Apply suitable fertilizer once a month from March to September.
