{"product_id":"ficus-elastica-belize","title":"Ficus elastica 'Belize'","description":"\u003ch2\u003eFicus elastica 'Belize' — pink‑blushed tricolour foliage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cultivar is defined by its irregular tricolour leaves: deep green, cream and a noticeable pink to red‑blush on new growth. Leaves are broadly ovate, glossy and leathery with a red‑purple midrib and petiole that gives a warm, sunset‑toned look across the plant. Each leaf is unique, so the overall effect is lively and variegated rather than perfectly patterned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndoors it keeps an upright, columnar habit but is commonly sold as a compact potted specimen; new leaves tend to emerge with the strongest pink tones and often mature toward cream and green sectors. If left to grow long term it can develop longer canes or a multi‑stem form, and light pinching will encourage a couple of lateral branches rather than a single bare stem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect straightforward, moderate upkeep: bright, indirect light preserves the variegation and overwatering will show as yellow leaves, so avoid waterlogged mix. One honest trade‑off is that the coloured sectors are sensitive to strong midday sun and low humidity can brown edges on variegated margins. Be aware the plant contains milky sap that can irritate skin and is considered toxic to pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest for small to medium indoor spots where a compact, colourful leaf texture is wanted — shelves, side tables or near an east\/west window. This listing is supplied as a medium, compact pot (12 cm pot, ~30 cm height), which makes it easy to trial the cultivar’s pink venation in tighter spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plant Circle","offers":[{"title":"Medium - P12 H30","offer_id":49196381929740,"sku":"MM-DG20","price":14.11,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0848\/3553\/3068\/files\/ficus-elastica-belize-l-large-approx-550cm-height-210cm-pot-1__Ficus_2-scaled-3_cb879c5b-83cb-46bb-9d90-6ef0d25f1c0b.jpg?v=1758791870","url":"https:\/\/plantcircle.com\/en-at\/products\/ficus-elastica-belize","provider":"Plant Circle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
