Caring for a Ficus Tineke is relatively straightforward, making it an excellent choice for beginner plant enthusiasts. These plants prefer bright, indirect light and well-draining soil, ideally a slightly acidic cactus mix. Watering should be done when the top layer of soil feels dry, and it's crucial to avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Regular dusting of the leaves and occasional fertilization during the growing season can help maintain its health and appearance.

To avoid skinny stems, be sure to provide enough overhead light, rotate your plant often, provide a fan, and trim the stem (up to one third of the plant's size) yearly.

Maintaining the right environmental conditions is key to the well-being of your Ficus Tineke. It thrives in temperatures between 60 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit and appreciates moderate humidity. Avoid placing it in areas with cold drafts or direct sunlight, as this can damage its foliage. With proper care, your Ficus Tineke can grow into a beautiful and vibrant addition to your indoor space.
