| Rubber Plant Ficus Elastica |
With the strength of rubber plant , it looks
tough and has been used for many purposes, so each part of the plant is useful.
Rubber plants are considered symbols of strength and stability. A very good
feng shui plant to bring energy of stability and strength when planted in the
garden or home.
When planting rubber plant remember to have a
bigger larger pot as the roots of this grow fast and the plant may need space
as also the leaves are quite broad , shiny, large and oval shaped.
The leaves of rubber plant are attractive dark
green and shiny and when you keep them clean they are quiet glossy and look
attractive. The stem of Rubber plant is reddish brown and the dark green leaves
are soothing to heart chakra and brings in grounding Earth energy.

The scientific name of Rubber plant is Ficus
elastica. Commonly called as he rubber fig, rubber bush, rubber tree, or Indian
Rubber bush. The Rubber plant can grow quite tall as a full fledged tree and
produces hanging roots . Each such portion with roots can be transplanted to form a new rubber tree.

When we cut the stem or pluck a leaf a milky white
sticky liquid oozes out.Latex, it is best to wear gloves while trimming the
plant, as the liquid can produce a rash and allergy to skin.
I love how the new leaves come up. you see a
reddish maroon curled portion coming up from tip of the stem and this unfurls
and the covering drops off leaving a green leaf inside that grows large. This
does develop small fig , green fruits but we have not seen in our container
plants.
Best easy growing ornamental plant the Rubber plant
can grow in dark areas and even are happy inside homes.
The symbolism in Feng Shui is this plant can be
added to your east sector for good health and healing all relationships. It
also helps keep happiness and understanding in joint families and with elders
bringing in health luck.
