Variegated Ficus Rubiginosa – A Rare & Hardy Ornamental Fig

The Variegated Ficus rubiginosa, also known as the Port Jackson Fig, is a striking, hardy fig with beautifully mottled green and creamy-yellow leaves. Native to Australia, this species is well-loved for its adaptability, resilience, and stunning foliage, making it a standout feature in any collection.

Why Choose Variegated Ficus Rubiginosa?

  • Unique Variegation: Features a mix of deep green and yellow-cream splashes on each leaf.
  • Hardy & Low Maintenance: Thrives in a range of conditions, from indoor pots to outdoor gardens.
  • Great for Bonsai or Large Spaces: Can be pruned to stay compact or allowed to grow into a statement tree.
  • Australian Native: Well-adapted to various climates and naturally resilient.

Care Guidelines

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can handle some direct sun. The variegation will be more pronounced with higher light exposure.
  • Soil & Watering: Likes well-draining soil. Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry between waterings to prevent overwatering.
  • Temperature & Humidity: Tolerates a range of conditions but prefers warmth. 
  • Pruning & Growth: Can be trained as a bonsai for a compact look or left to grow into a lush ornamental tree.

Shipping

This plant will be sent in its plastic growing pot

We only ship plants on Mondays. Please order before 2pm on Sunday to ensure your plant will be sent the following Monday. Orders placed after this time MIGHT not be shipped untill the following week.

We only ship plants to non-quarantine states (sorry sorry WA, TAS and NT residents). Shipping of plants is capped at $18.00 per order. This includes the packing materials and labour times. We use recycled packing where possible to reduce our waste and keep cost down, but we ensure that all packing material is sturdy enough to resist damage during transit.

If no one is home to receive your order, the parcel will be left in a safe place. We will not request signature on delivery, as parcels sent back to the post office may not get picked up for days, therefore increasing the amount of stress placed on the plant(s) inside.

This plant can also be picked up from the Northern Wellbeing Centre; 113C miller st, Epping VIC. If you select this option at check-out, we will email you to organise a pick-up time.
