Burgundy Rubber plant has shiny leaves that range from rich burgundy red to almost black. New leaves are covered in a red cover, as the leaf emerges it sheds it’s cover and a new leaf starts to grow. This beautiful plant will add richness to your interior.Originating in India and Indonesia, the Rubber Plant is one of the most popular indoor plants, and it’s easy to see why. Their broad rich, rubbery leaves add a wonderful diversity of texture to your home’s aesthetic. And while the upward facing sides of the leaves are a luscious green, the undersides and new growths have stunning hues of pink and bronze. Rubber plants enjoyed a period of great celebrity in the ‘70s and can add a charming retro touch to your home’s aesthetic. The Rubber Plant is another good choice for filtering toxins out of the air. However, it’s important to note that the leaves can be poisonous to pets, so they should be kept out of the reach of dogs and cats. The Rubber Plant’s sap is also where we get latex from. So it’s best to handle with gloves if you’re allergic to latex. The Ficus Elastica is pretty low maintenance. Keep the soil moist and water whenever you see the topsoil start to get dry. However, be careful not to over-water as this can cause the leaves to drop. Keep it away from cold draughts where possible, and apply a weak dose of fertilizer once or twice a month.
Plants and pots are sold separately.
