Hevea brasiliensis aka Para Rubber

Para Rubber presents a moderate level of care, which allows plant enthusiasts with some experience to expand their skills and knowledge.

Para Rubber’s native range is S. America - Brazil around the Amazon and Orinoco rivers.

Para Rubber should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

To ensure optimal growth, the Para Rubber prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

The toxicity level of this plant has not been officially confirmed by Ploi. If there is a possibility of ingestion of plant material with an uncertain toxicity by you, a family member, or a pet, it is advisable to seek the assistance of a medical professional.

During the wintertime, it's common for Para Rubber to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more.
