Full Size Rubber Tree Bush

Commonly known as 'Pretty in Pink', this popular, fast-growing, low maintenance indoor plant is native to India and Malaysia. With its striking, bold, deep green and pink variegation, it brightens up your space and brings the outdoors in! It actually gets its name because the sap it produces is used to make latex!

Being that it's from a tropical rainforest, it thrives in moderate humidity, warm temperatures, moist soil, low to indirect bright light and will grow up to 6 - 10 ft. tall indoors. Since they are good low light indoor plants, this makes them great for dark corners, or as low light office plants!

Lighting

How would I explain a plant that can be in any kind of lighting? Rubber trees- when kept in lower lighting- will take a little while to shed some leaves and replace it with new growth, when kept in brighter light will give you these glossy, thick, and beautiful leaves you see in the gallery above

Watering

Water the plant sparing- keep in mind less is more, in terms of watering frequency. Let the first 2-3 inches of the soil dry out before you give it a thorough thirst quench. Thorough means a continuous 2-3 minutes of watering.

Growing habits

Over time this plant may drop some of its lower leaves, but don’t be alarmed, this is just a natural occurrence in the plant's life cycle and will help encourage new growth/bigger leaves!
