2. Value

1. This plant is a natural rubber plant that can purify fine dust and toxic formaldehyde, while absorbing gases that are harmful to us and releasing healthy substances.

2. Its leaves are relatively thick, large and look beautiful and shiny. The red terminal buds are like clouds, and after the stipules split open, they look like red tassels falling down and hanging down, which has a special charm. Therefore, its ornamental value is relatively high and it is a very good foliage plant.

3. If this plant is placed in a place with more sunlight, it can have a stronger biological effect, which can effectively regulate the humidity and oxygen content in the air. Therefore, it is very suitable to place a pot in a poorly ventilated studio with a lot of dust and a lot of people.

3. Notes

This plant is poisonous, but as long as we do not actively touch the juice in its leaves, it is very suitable to be placed in the house for maintenance, both because of its air-conditioning effect and because of its high ornamental value.
