The return of 1970s fashion and design has one major highlight for us gardeners – the current boom in the popularity of indoor plants.
If you are one to keep up with trends, an indoor Ficus is an absolute must. A few Ficus varieties have recently captured the eyes of plant lovers and can be seen splashed across design blogs and social media pages. Here are three options you can try to keep up with the times:
Ficus elastica ‘Robusta’
Ficus elastica, commonly known as the rubber plant, has become a recent indoor staple. Its large glossy leaves and impressive height are not the only benefits; it is also number four on NASA’s Clean Air Study, making it a great air-purifying plant. Ficus elastica ‘Robusta’ is a good variety for conservative houseplant owners who want something simple but striking. The leaves are an intense green and have a structure that fits well with contemporary interiors.
