The Rubber Plant (Ficus elastica) is a striking, sculptural houseplant that makes an instant style statement. Native to Southeast Asia, it’s loved for its large, glossy leaves and bold form, which bring contemporary elegance to any interior. Naturally low-maintenance, this resilient plant is the perfect way to add year-round greenery with minimal fuss.
Whether styled as a dramatic focal point or grouped with other plants for a lush, layered look, the Rubber Plant delivers effortless sophistication and calm to your space. Over time, it can grow into an impressive indoor tree, rewarding you with height, presence, and architectural beauty.
Care Tips
Place in bright, indirect light and allow the top of the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Wipe the leaves occasionally to keep them glossy and dust-free. Avoid overwatering and keep away from cold draughts.
Plant Size
Fully mature height: up to 4m
Please Note
This Rubber Plant comes in a natural plastic nursery pot – the decorative pot shown in photos is not included.
Choosing the Right Decorative Pot
For the best fit, select a decorative pot separately. As a guide, go one size up from the nursery pot. For example, if your plant comes in a 25cm nursery pot, choose a decorative pot with an internal diameter of around 30–35cm. Explore our full plant pot collection below to find the perfect match.
