Ficus Elastica Introduction and Popularity

Ficus elastica is a member of the robust Moraceae family, also famously known as the Rubber Plant due to its sap, which has a rubbery quality. It originates from the eastern parts of South Asia and has since spread throughout the world because of its versatility and charm. The Ficus elastica is particularly cherished by plant enthusiasts as it's not only attractive with its glossy, leathery leaves but also remarkably hardy. [1]

This plant has steadily been gaining in demand and popularity, thanks to its ability to contribute positively to indoor environments with its air-purifying qualities. Despite its exotic origins, the ficus elastica, remarkably, is undemanding and has a reputation for being straightforward to care for — a big part of its appeal for many plant owners, novice or seasoned veterans alike.
