Ficus elastica ‘Burgundy’ (Rubber Plant) is a bold, easy-care indoor tree prized for its thick, glossy leaves that mature to deep burgundy—almost black—set off by red new-growth sheaths.
Foliage: Large, leathery leaves; rich burgundy/near-black color intensifies in bright light.
Habit/size: Upright, tree-like; typically 3–8 ft indoors (prune to shape).
Light: Bright, indirect light with a bit of gentle morning sun; tolerates medium light.
Water: Let the top 1–2 in of soil dry, then water thoroughly; avoid soggy roots.
Soil: Well-draining mix (potting soil + bark/perlite).
Humidity/temp: Average home conditions are fine; 65–85°F; avoid cold drafts.
Care tips: Rotate for even growth; wipe leaves to keep glossy.
Toxicity: Sap contains latex and is toxic/irritating if chewed—keep from pets and children.
All plants come with a regular black nursery pot
