Easy to care for and wonderfully decorative, the Baby Rubber Plant is an excellent choice for both beginners and seasoned plant lovers alike.

Care Tips:

• Water about once a week or so, when the soil is dry. If the leaves look limp, it's ready for a drink!
• Light - prefers bight, direct light, but it will be happy in lower lighting as well.
• Repot once you notice roots coiling around the bottom of the planter and/or it dries out more quickly between watering. When you choose a new pot for it, only go up 1-2" in pot size at a time to encourage healthy foliage growth. 

Key Features:

• Compact & Versatile: Perfect for small spaces, desktops, or hanging planters.
• Low Maintenance: Doesn't need to be watered often and is fairly forgiving. 
• Air Purifying: Helps improve indoor air quality by filtering toxins.

🐾 Pet friendly! Not normally harmful unless consumed in large quantities.
