Rubber tree, also known as Pará rubber tree, Brazilian rubber tree, Para rubber, Rubber plant, Hevea, Amazonian rubber tree, Siringa tree
Rubber tree is a robust and popular houseplant known for its glossy, leathery leaves and upright growth habit. It prefers bright, indirect light and consistent, moderate watering, allowing the topsoil to dry out between watering sessions to prevent root rot. It's sensitive to cold drafts and extreme temperature changes. Pruning is necessary to maintain its shape and encourage a bushier growth pattern. With these considerations, rubber tree is an easy-care plant ideal for beginners.
