Why Rubber Plants?
Known as the Burgundy Bush, the Rubber Plant is a stunning, ornamental Ficus that makes an undeniable statement. It lights up any room as a centerpiece or table plant at 1 to 2 feet tall. Let it grow to 3 feet tall for a welcoming addition to an entranceway – or a warm enhancement beside your fireplace!
But unusual and bold foliage is the Rubber Plant's specialty. The Burgundy beauty develops large, 4-inch wide leaves that will extend up to 12 inches in length. Because the most impressive trait of its foliage is each leaf's deep burgundy, chocolate hues, and vibrant red midrib, you can add warmth to any living space.

Rubber Plant
Plant is beautiful, arrived on time and in great shape, have bought a lemon and Cara Cara orange tree from this company and they are doing great. Highly recommend this company
Great Plant!
My rubber plant arrived in good condition. The leaves were dirty, so I hand-wiped each one until they shone. I put the plant in my office to get light but no sun. It started growing right away, so I transplanted it to a larger pot. The new leaves are extremely shiny and attractive. I don't over-water and am very happy I bought this plant. It couldn't look any healthier!
Boxed Up Beauties!
I ordered two rubber plants to replace two 9 year old dying palms. I read that rubber plants require little care -which matched my needs. My order arrived quickly—faster than the dirt I ordered from Amazon on the same day! I had ordered Miracle Grow Indoor Potting Mix Less Prone to Gnats from Amazon but I am still waiting. The plants came in much larger than expected and were in amazingly great shape. I only had to cut off three leaves in total from the two plants due to damage. (But I am rooting those leaves with Garden Safe rooting hormone.) The only issue is the leaves were all covered with something which looked like dust. I used a dampened textured microfiber cloth and a soft scrub brush to gently clean both sides of each leaf. Then I rubbed Miracle Grow Leaf Shine into each leaf. The beauty of these healthy plants just popped! They enjoy being together, taking in the sun, while we await their soil. My only regret is I just should have just ordered soil from Fast Growing Trees so I could have potted my plants upon receipt!!
Rubber Plant
Very hardy and beautiful!
Jaw dropping beauty!
I could not believe how gorgeous my 3-gallon Rubber Plant was right out of the box. The color is gorgeous, and the plant is so healthy. I am super excited for it be one of my first house plants. Cannot recommend this plant and company enough!
