Rubber plant (Ficus Gold King)

摘要

A rubber plant exhibiting variegated foliage and resembling the known Ficus elastica Roxb. var. decora tricolor hort., but bearing leaves exhibiting very narrow dark-green borders and light-yellow interiors and being smaller in size. The leaf blades are of an ovate shape with a thick coriaceous texture and with wavy edges. Propagation of the rubber plant by using cuttings is difficult and even impossible, therefore, air layering is employed.
