Ficus elastica ‘Robusta’ (24cm pot)
Rubber Plant
add a pot to fit this plant
Ficus elastica ‘Robusta’, commonly known as the Rubber Plant, is a bold, architectural houseplant with large, glossy green leaves and a strong upright form.
This larger, floor-standing specimen features three plants in one pot, creating a fuller, more established look from day one. It’s perfect for adding height, structure and rich greenery to living rooms, bedrooms or bright corners of the home.
Care
Place in bright, indirect light for best growth, though it will tolerate slightly lower light conditions. Allow the top few centimetres of compost to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering and cold draughts.
Why we love it
With its deep green, glossy leaves and sculptural shape, the Rubber Plant is one of the most timeless indoor plants. This multi-stem version offers instant impact and is ideal if you’re looking for a low-maintenance statement plant that feels substantial and well-established.

Care Instructions
Light
Prefers indirect bright light and will tolerate direct sunlight in the morning or evening. Ficus like to be warm, so keep away from cold draughts.
Water
Water thoroughly, then allow the top half of the compost to dry before rewatering. Over-watering will cause root rot.
Food
Feed every second time you water through spring and summer with a quality liquid plant food. There is no need to feed this plant in winter.
Humidity
This plant enjoys humidity. Mist regularly with water and remove dust from the leaves with a damp cloth to improve photosynthesis.
