Also known as: Burgundy Rubber Tree, Rubber Plant, India Rubber Fig

Native to the tropical rainforests of South and Southeast Asia, Ficus Burgundy is a bold cultivar of the classic Rubber Tree — and one of the most dramatic indoor foliage plants you can own. Its large, glossy leaves emerge bright red before deepening into rich burgundy and dark green, creating a striking, ever-changing display of color right in your home. Tough, easy to care for, and known for its air-purifying qualities, it's the kind of plant that turns any room into a designer space with very little effort.

plant tips

water
Water when the top few inches of soil feel dry — avoid splashing the leaves to prevent staining. Reduce watering in cooler months and ensure good drainage.
light
Thrives in bright indirect light. Low light is tolerated but leads to less vibrant color in the leaves.
zone
Houseplant.
size
Grows 6–10 ft. tall indoors.

care

Place near a bright window with indirect light and water once the top of the soil starts to dry out. Feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer during spring and summer and let the plant rest in winter without fertilizing. Wipe leaves occasionally to keep their natural glossy shine looking sharp. Prune as needed to control height and encourage fuller, bushier growth.
