Ficus elastica is a large tree with a stout trunk that develops aerial and buttressing roots to anchor it in the soil and help support heavy branches.

A seed starting soil mix is designed to give seeds everything they need to start growing. They are typically finer and lighter than regular soil mixes. This mix should contain ingredients such as compost, perlite, vermiculite, and peat moss.

This plant grows shiny glossy leaves which could be the ideal houseplant for you if you want a tough but easy going indoor plant that can reach staggering heights.
