Just got this gorgeous ficus shivereana on Facebook marketplace a few days ago. I had to add some soil to the top to make her stand upright. If anyone has any tips or suggestions I would love them!! This is my first rubber plant, I do have a fiddle leaf that’s thriving. The shivereana is underneath an east facing window, the fiddle leaf is under an east facing window but with cross light from south facing.
I have 4 and I find them a super easy plant, no drama lol just water when full dry and good light and they are happy ☺️

Rubber plants are pretty easy although they do drop leaves leaves very easily. Just make sure to water constantly (I would water now because the leaves look a little droopy)
