Beautiful rubber plant, very big! (Bowerham LA1)
Beautiful, very large rubber plant, 1.4m tall. Sadly rehoming due to house move as it won't fit in the new place. Has developed scale (easily treated houseplant issue - wipe leaves with neem oil or mild soapy water and it clears right up). Absolutely massive and heavy so you'll need two people to shift it. Would love this to go to someone experienced with houseplants who'll get it back to its best. Comes in lovely glazed pot. Banana for scale 😊
