Ficus elastica (more commonly known as a rubber plant, rubber tree or rubber tree plant) is a popular
houseplant
because of its waxy leaves and larger-than-life appearance. Rubber plants can grow up to 100 feet in
their
native
homeland of Southeast Asia. As a domesticated houseplant, rubber plants grow anywhere between six to ten
feet
tall.
Rubber plants earned their name thanks to their sap, which is sometimes used to make rubber. The rubber
plant’s
leaves
also have a shiny and rubbery appearance. These plants will grow tall and produce beautiful leaves if
you
give
them
proper care.
Rubber plants are commonly seen in their dark green variety, but also come in more colorful varieties.
For
example,
varieties known as the “black prince” or “burgundy” have reddish-black leaves.
