Description

Looking for a plant that brings authentic rainforest beauty into your home? Then we can’t wait to introduce you to the magnificent Rubber Tree - a stunning statement piece that will turn your space into a peaceful botanical retreat.

Native to the Amazon rainforests, the Hevea brasiliensis gave the world natural latex. We're here to help you bring this tree into your home, where its impressive presence will definitely be a conversation starter. With smooth bark and wonderfully glossy leaves, this beauty deserves a special (large) place in your plant collection.

Care 

Is a rubber tree a good indoor plant?

The rubber tree needs more space than many houseplants, but we believe it's absolutely worth it for the joy it brings! If you have the ceiling height, this beautiful specimen will become the heart of your room.

Are rubber trees hard to keep alive? 

Your rubber tree will thrive with consistent, loving attention to its basic needs. But it only needs regular care with steady temperatures, watering, and bright light. We promise it's not overwhelming! With our guidance, it will flourish.

This Amazonian beauty rewards dedicated care with years of green happiness, becoming a cherished part of your home and daily routine.

How often should I water a rubber plant? 

We recommend watering your rubber tree when the top 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) of soil feel dry. Think of recreating that perfect rainforest environment - consistently moist but never waterlogged. Check regularly whether it has just the right amount of moisture.

Where should I place a rubber tree in my house? 

Your rubber tree is happiest near an east- or south-facing window with bright, indirect light. We suggest avoiding direct afternoon sun, which can stress the leaves. Finding the perfect spot for your new giant friend is part of the joy! 

Can rubber tree plants live in bathrooms? 

Bathrooms can be wonderful homes for rubber trees! If your bathroom has bright light and enough space for growth, your plant will love the almost-tropical humidity. Make sure there’s proper ventilation, and you’re good to go!

What fertilizer should I use for a rubber tree? 

We recommend feeding your rubber tree with a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during spring and summer. Think of it as providing loving nutrition for steady, healthy growth. Regular feeding helps your gentle giant plant stay strong and vibrant!

What does rubber tree plant care involve? 

Caring for your rubber tree involves providing bright indirect light, consistent moisture, regular feeding, and occasional leaf cleaning. We see plant care as being a beautiful relationship - the more attention you give, the more your plant flourishes!

Does a rubber tree need sunlight? 

Your rubber tree needs bright, indirect sunlight for at least 6 hours daily to stay healthy and happy. We always recommend filtered light similar to its rainforest home - gentle but consistent throughout the day. Direct afternoon sun can damage leaves.

Pet-friendly?

We care deeply about all family members, including pets. Unfortunately, the rubber tree isn't pet-friendly due to its latex sap containing ficin and other compounds. 

Are rubber tree plants toxic to dogs? 

Rubber trees are toxic to dogs, as their latex sap contains ficin compounds that can cause gastrointestinal upset and oral irritation. If your dog has ingested any part of your rubber tree plant, please contact your veterinarian immediately.

We're here to help you choose pet-safe alternatives if needed, ensuring both your plants and pets can coexist safely.

How toxic is a rubber plant to cats? 

The rubber tree is toxic to cats, potentially causing oral irritation, drooling, and digestive issues. If your cat has chewed on your rubber tree, please seek veterinary care right away. We understand how important pet safety is.

We can recommend beautiful cat-friendly plants that provide a similar impact while keeping your feline friends completely safe.


Factoids

What is the difference between a rubber plant and a rubber tree? 

The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is the authentic latex-producing species that grows impressively large, while the rubber plant (Ficus elastica) is its smaller ornamental cousin. We're proud to offer you the genuine rubber tree with Amazonian heritage!

Do rubber trees make rubber? 

Your rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is the very species that produces commercial latex for countless products. So you're nurturing a piece of industrial history in your home - a plant that’s shaped the world (and looks great while doing it)!

Does a rubber tree purify air? 

Your rubber tree contributes to air purification through its large leaves, creating oxygen and improving humidity levels. While not the most efficient air purifier, it brings a piece of the Amazon's natural air-cleaning power into your space.

What is the lifespan of a rubber tree? 

With proper care, your indoor rubber tree can live for a truly long time, even several decades! Wild specimens can reach 100 years. We're honored to help you start this long-term relationship with a truly special gentle giant.

Do they still use rubber trees to make rubber? 

Hevea brasiliensis remains the world's primary natural rubber source, with plantations across Southeast Asia producing latex for tires, medical supplies, and so much more. It’s amazing that your houseplant shares DNA with the trees that keep the world moving.

What is the spiritual meaning of a rubber tree? 

The rubber tree symbolizes resilience, adaptability, and abundance - qualities we admire deeply. Indigenous Amazonian peoples considered it sacred because it represented the forest's generosity, while modern interpretations connect it to flexibility in life's challenges and personal growth.

Is the rubber tree fruit edible? 

The rubber tree fruit isn't edible - really they're seed capsules that explode when ripe, naturally dispersing seeds. Your indoor rubber tree rarely fruits, rather focusing its energy on producing those beautiful leaves we all love so much.

great product, horrid shipping packaging
Very moisturizing yet very light. I love the smell of cucumber, too. And the best feature is that it's organic, so you can safely use it on a daily basis. While I love the product, I do not like the way they ship it. When I received my COOLA, the box was smashed. But I did not imagine that it damaged the tube as well. You can kind of see them on the photo, but it created sharp-edged creases, from where it often starts leaking. I did not want to take a chance, so I contacted the seller, and they sent me a replacement. But the replacement box was also smashed, although the tube itself was not damaged this time. If you want to buy products as gifts, you can never buy them from this seller. COOLA itself is fantastic, so I wanted to give a 5 star, but the way they carelessly ship is unacceptable, which would have resulted in 2 stars, but they promptly replaced it, so I'd give 3.5, but for lack of 0.5 increment, I gave it 4 stars.

LOVES LOVES LOVES
This is the absolute best sunscreen on the market for your face. Or at least that I've ever tried. Being in my 20's I'm getting pretty obsessed with preventative care, and face sunscreen every day is a big priority. I actually received a sample size in my Birch Box Monthly Subscription and I fell in love with it. So happy I found a cheaper once on Amazon because it usually is about $35! The smell is NOTHING like a sunscreen, it smells like fresh cucumber, and the texture is not thick. I put it on under my makeup and it does not feel the slightest bit heavy. Needless to say, unless one day I have an allergic reaction to it, I will be using this sunscreen until I die.

Not Natural
I loved the application of this product, very smooth, no smell, no white patches and, supposedly, all natural. Then I looked at the inactive ingredients! EWG rates this product #3 for problematic ingredients. The most problematic is the OCTINOXATE, which they rate #6! I'm torn. I have not found another sunscreen with as good an application as this one but I don't want to put harmful things on my skin. I have decided to return it. Sigh! UPDATE: I just discovered that EWG rates highly the Coola PLANT BASED sunscreen (not this one). The reviews for that product, however, suggest it leaves a white paste, like most other sunscreens. I'm going Dr. Mercola's face stick. It got good reviews here.

Excellent sunscreen for daily sun protection...
This is a great sunscreen for the "light" days in the sun. I layer my skincare (serums, creams, then sunscreen) before I apply my makeup. Sunscreen is always the last step before I apply my makeup. Other brands have been known to "bead up" under my makeup through out the day, or have a white cast to them. This does not do that. It doesn't leave a white cast, or residue of any kind on my skin. It is lightweight to the point of being weightless right after application. It is incredibly moisturizing on my dry skin as well, which I LOVE! Love the ingredients too for everyday use! The only downside to this sunscreen is it isn't strong enough to protect my skin on days I am in the sun a lot and cannot reapply every hour, or so. I noticed a couple of stubborn brown spots pop up after a couple hours in direct sunlight. I didn't burn, but I did get a tan on my face I was hoping to avoid. All in all, This is my favorite sunscreen I use when I am running to-and-fro, but not the sunscreen I will use at the ball field, or a day at the beach.

A little pricey but worth it
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. I have really sensitive skin and eczema, and am allergic to scented liquid soaps, detergents and creams. I got a sample of this in a subscription box, and fell in LOVE after I tested just a little on my hand at first. Now I've ordered multiple time, and even shipped some to my mom! It feels luxurious but also fresh and natural on your face, I put it on as a moisturizer, hit some concealer under my eyes, swipe some mascara on and am good to go - it feels like a whole skin-care routine in one go. The size is a little small for the price, but it's light, non-irritating, and refreshing. I think it's definitely worth it if you have sensitive skin and want sun protection without a load of chemicals on your face. I put a picture of what it looks like on my hand reflected in some light - it's slightly greasy at first, but it dries nice and soft afterwards, I still feel like my pores can breathe. I usually don't write product reviews, but after I ordered my 3rd batch I felt I should share. *One other thing to note - make sure you read the label if you want the specific scented one, I accidentally ordered the unscented one when I wanted the cucumber because the packaging looks the same and the label is in the scripty font and I missed it when I made a rushed order.
