Rubber Plant
Ficus elastica
Rubber Plants are a low-maintenance houseplant that can grow up to six feet indoors. They prefer morning sun or bright indirect sunlight and thrive in moist, well-draining soil. Fertilize once per month during spring and summer with a thin layer of compost or a diluted low-potency chemical fertilizer. Regular misting is recommended to prevent pest infestation and keep the edges of the leaves from browning.
