{"product_id":"ficus-elastica-shivereana","title":"Ficus elastica Shivereana","description":"\u003cp\u003eFicus elastica 'Shivereana' serves up massive glossy leaves (8-12 inches long) splashed with minty lime-green, cream, white, and dark green marbling like someone spilled paint across every single one—plus warm peachy-pink hues when the light hits just right. Also called \"Moonshine\" for that ethereal glow, each leaf is completely unique, and she can stretch to 6 feet indoors with proper care. Needs bright light to keep that variegation popping; too little and she'll revert to boring solid green faster than you can say \"Where'd the color go?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLIGHT:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright indirect light essential for variegation; some direct morning\/evening sun ok; NO harsh midday sun (scorches); low light = variegation fades to green \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWATER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water when top 1-2 inches dry; keep moist but never soggy; very sensitive to overwatering (root rot); don't let dry out completely \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHUMIDITY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Average household humidity fine; prefers 50%+ but tolerates less; wipe leaves regularly to remove dust \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFERTILIZER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optional—fresh soil yearly provides nutrients; if fertilizing, use balanced liquid at half strength monthly spring\/summer \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTEMPERATURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm temps 60-75°F (15-24°C); NOT cold-tolerant; avoid drafts and temps below 50°F (drops leaves) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTOXICITY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toxic to cats, dogs, and humans if ingested \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeginner Friendly?\u003c\/strong\u003e Maybe—stunning but needs bright light for variegation, sensitive to overwatering, drops leaves when stressed, requires acclimation time\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHOW OUR SHIPPING WORKS We ship all live plants with custom packing, insulation, and lots of cushioning so they arrive in the best condition possible.
