30 - 40cm Ficus Tineke Grafted Ginseng 19cm Pot House Plant

Ficus Tineke is a popular plant for bonsai due to its variegated leaves and striking appearance. Here are some general care tips for keeping your Ficus Tineke bonsai healthy:

1. Light: Ficus Tineke bonsai prefer bright, indirect light. Place your bonsai near a window that receives plenty of sunlight, but avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves.

2. Watering: Water your Ficus Tineke bonsai sparingly. Wait until the soil has slightly dried out before watering it again. During the winter months, the bonsai will require even less water. It's important not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.

3. Soil: Plant your Ficus Tineke bonsai in well-draining soil, such as a mix of bonsai soil, perlite, and sand. The soil should be moist but not waterlogged.

4. Temperature: Ficus Tineke bonsai prefer warm temperatures between 60-80°F (16-27°C). Protect your bonsai from extreme temperatures, such as frost or heat waves.

5. Humidity: Ficus Tineke bonsai prefer moderate to high humidity. You can increase humidity by placing a humidifier near the plant, or by placing a tray of water near the plant.

6. Fertilizer: Fertilize your Ficus Tineke bonsai during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced fertilizer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates.

7. Pruning: Ficus Tineke bonsai benefit from regular pruning to maintain their shape and size. Trim back new growth to encourage branching and fuller foliage.

8. Repotting: Repot your Ficus Tineke bonsai every 2-3 years, or when it outgrows its current pot. Use a slightly larger pot and fresh soil.

With proper care, your Ficus Tineke bonsai should thrive and grow into a beautiful, healthy plant. However, it's important to note that Ficus Tineke can be sensitive to changes in light and temperature, and may require more specialized care compared to other types of bonsai.
