Plant Bio

 

Ficus elastica Burgundy

 

Native to areas of Asia, from India to Malaysia and Java, this tropical tree can reach more than 100 feet outdoors in its native habitat. But due to lower light levels indoors, it stays much smaller. It’s earned its common name—Rubber Tree—because its thick, milky-white sap was used to make a rubber-like compound.

 

Burgundy Rubber Tree grows best in medium to bright light. Placing it within 3 to 4 feet of a large, unobstructed east- or west-facing window is often ideal. It can be supplemented – or grow entirely – under artificial lights, as well.

 

Water as the top half or so of the potting mix dries to the touch. Provide average household temperatures and average to above-average relative humidity levels.

 

Note: This plant may have some natural degree of toxicity and may cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Additionally, exposure to the sap of this plant may cause discomfort to individuals with a sensitivity to it upon contact. Grown for ornamental purposes and not intended for human or animal consumption.
