It's already been 5 years since I started growing the rubber tree. Now, it has grown to the point where it feels like a medium-sized tree. Since we have a large rubber tree at home, I wanted to grow the rubber tree to a medium-sized tree. So I pruned it a lot to make it the size it is now. The rubber tree has a strong woody stem and healthy leaves! It grows well if you grow it in a place with good lighting and ventilation, like a veranda. And if you prune it a lot, new shoots will sprout, so you can quickly create a lush tree shape. However, there's one thing to be careful of when pruning. If you cut it with scissors, the sap will flow out right away. The sap is sticky, and when it hardens, it turns black, which is not nice to look at. So it's better to wipe it off with a damp cloth right away. The rubber tree is still pretty in my eyes~! I have to take better care of it and create a wonderful tree shape. :)
