Product Description
What Is a Rubber Plant?
A rubber plant or rubber tree (Ficus elastica) is an ornamental houseplant that grows between six and ten feet tall indoors and features large, shiny leaves. Most varieties of rubber plants have dark green leaves, but the black prince and burgundy rubber plants have blackish-red leaves. The milky latex sap of rubber trees is essential to the manufacturing of natural rubber.
Ideal Conditions for Growing a Rubber Plant
To ensure your rubber plant reaches its full potential, provide it with the optimal growing conditions.
Environment: Rubber plants grow best as indoor trees, but if you live in USDA hardiness zones 10 and 11 you can grow an outdoor rubber plant. Outdoor rubber plants can grow up to 30 feet tall, so make sure your plant has enough room to spread out.
Light: Rubber plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Providing the perfect amount of bright light for your rubber plant is a delicate balancing act, as direct sunlight may scorch the leaves while low light levels can cause the lower leaves to fall off.
Soil type: A well-aerated potting mix with good drainage is ideal. Rubber plants tolerate both alkaline and acidic soils.
Temperature: Rubber plants grow best in warm temperatures between 60 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit, but during the winter they can survive temperatures as low as 50 degrees. Average to high humidity is best, so you may want to mist your rubber plant's leaves if the air is too dry.
Watering regimen: Water your rubber plant when the soil becomes slightly dry to the touch. The plant has a decent drought tolerance, so it's better to water sparingly than too frequently. Water the plant until the soil is moist but not oversaturated. Soggy soil may cause root rot, so make sure your rubber plant's container has drainage holes for excess water to escape. During the winter dormant season, the rubber plant may require less water than during the growing season.
