Big Red the Rubber Tree 'Tineke', XL

Bold Colours | Air purifier | Rare Size

Rubber trees are native to the rainforests of India and South America but easily adapt to indoor climates.

This variety of Rubber tree has beautiful bright colours, but is just as easy to care for as the more common Burgundy variety. It would do well with a good view of the sky and a thorough watering every few weeks.

Also know as Ficus Elastica 'Tineke', Rubber bush, Rubber tree.
