The "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica, also known as the "Ruby" rubber plant, is a striking variety of the rubber tree plant, with beautiful pink, green, and cream-colored leaves. This plant adds a touch of color and elegance to any indoor space. Follow these care instructions to keep your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica healthy and thriving:

  1. Light: Place your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica in a location with bright, indirect light. The variegated leaves require more light than the non-variegated varieties to maintain their vibrant colors. However, avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves and cause the colors to fade.

  2. Water: Allow the top 2-3 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Water your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica thoroughly until it drains from the bottom of the pot, and then allow the excess water to drain completely. Be cautious not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.

  3. Humidity: "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica can tolerate average indoor humidity levels. However, it will appreciate a boost in humidity, especially during dry winter months. To increase humidity, you can place a tray filled with water and pebbles underneath the pot, mist the leaves occasionally, or use a humidifier.

  4. Temperature: Maintain a temperature range of 65-85°F (18-29°C) for optimal growth. "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica can tolerate a range of temperatures but avoid exposing it to temperatures below 50°F (10°C) or sudden temperature changes.

  5. Fertilizer: Feed your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Use a half-strength solution to avoid over-fertilizing. Reduce feeding to once every 2-3 months during fall and winter.

  6. Pruning: Prune your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica as needed to maintain its shape and size. Remove any yellow or brown leaves and trim the tips if they become damaged. You can also pinch back the growing tips to encourage bushier growth.

  7. Repotting: Repot your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica every 2-3 years or when the roots outgrow the pot. Choose a well-draining potting mix and a pot that is 1-2 inches larger in diameter than the current one. Be gentle when handling the roots, and water the plant thoroughly after repotting.

  8. Pest control: Keep an eye out for common pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects. Treat any infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil, following the manufacturer's instructions.

Pet-friendly or toxic to pets?

According to the ASPCA, Ficus elastica, including the "Ruby" variegated variety, is toxic to cats and dogs. If ingested, it can cause symptoms such as oral irritation, excessive drooling, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing due to the presence of proteolytic enzymes and calcium oxalate crystals. It's best to keep your "Ruby" variegated Ficus elastica out of reach of pets to prevent any potential health issues. If you suspect your pet has ingested any part of the plant, contact your veterinarian immediately.

My guy loves the duck. At first the "different" sound put him off a bit but soon he was throwing his new toy all over the house. The reason I gave 4 stars is because my 8 lb. pup managed to undo the ducks braided legs and now they are nothing but a bunch of strings hanging from its body. Other than that he enjoys this toy immensely.

Great toy...

My dog LOVES this toy! It's very durable as he loves to throw it around. It was bigger than I expected, but my little shih Tzu still loves it.

Cute and well made, fun toy for dogs of all sizes.
Color: Frog (Green)
My small dogs luv this toy, especially the handle part for playing tug of war. My peekapoo is only 14 lbs. but he loves to get a grip on the handle with his mouth and tug really hard which also stretches the body and makes the crunchy noises! My chihuahua loves it too and she tries to grab the eyes with her mouth. It is a very well made toy with a squeaker and light stuffing in the head which makes me feel good about letting them play with it. It is strong and very cute and I think they will have it for a long time.

Octopus dog toy
My dogs love this toy! They love to play tug of war with it, using the rope legs. The legs will pull out if they are strong dogs! But if the dogs are having fun with it, it isn't a problem. One of my dogs has shredded some of the legs and put a hole in yhe body, but she is a strong chewer. There is a squeaker in the octopus body. They enjoy the toy, so I would recommend it.

Decent toy! Dog ripped off legs after a couple days.
As the title says the toy was pretty durable and it’s made of a good rubber which makes it durable. My dog is a medium sized pomsky and she had a hard time gripping the shell part. I stuffed the middle part with treats which by the way DO NOT do that. My dog got really frustrated bc the treats weren’t coming out and idk what happened bc she ended up gagging and coughing. No throw up tho so good enough for me. While my review seems pretty daunting it’s really not a bad toy if you make sure to keep an eye on the rope appendages.
