Is This the Right Plant for You?
The Rubber Tree is a popular ornamental plant that can grow to over 30 meters tall in the right conditions. Its name comes from the milky latex in its leaves which was once used to make natural rubber. Native to east India, in some parts of the country, the roots of the tree are guided over chasms to form natural bridges!

At Léon & George we pay special attention to detail. Our staging kit includes stabilized natural lichen for a bright finish.
We also know that finding the right watering routine can be difficult and unlike the last piece of furniture you bought, a live plant requires special attention.
That's why your plant comes with a simple and stylish watering indicator that tells you when it's time to water your plant, as well as clay balls and a matching saucer to retain moisture and limit the risk of overwatering.
Designed and tested with research institutes and agronomists, this tool works without batteries and uses a simple color scale: blue = enough water, white = it may be time to water.

Watering
Approximately 0.5 liters of water once a week in summer, every 10 days to 2 weeks in winter.
Care Guide
For watering, use water at room temperature and whose chlorine has evaporated. Let the soil dry between 2 waterings. Remove the decorative moss beforehand to avoid wetting it. Water in 2 times, spaced about 10 minutes apart, so that the soil absorbs the water well. Spray the foliage of your plant regularly to increase the humidity level. Clean the foliage once a month with a soft cloth and diluted black soap. Rotate the pot a quarter circle at this time to promote smooth growth. Apply suitable fertilizer once a month from March to September.
