The common rubber tree (Ficus Elastica) or rubber plant if grown indoors is a species of fig tree and is totally related to the edible figs that you buy in the grocery or the fig tree in the bible. It is also a brother of the banyan tree(Ficus Benghalensis) and the sacred Bo/bodhi/sacred fig tree(Ficus Religiosa). All the species from this Genus(Ficus) do not produce flowers that are visible but rather produce flowers that are inside the fruit (the figs). So the rubber plant produces flowers that are inside the fruit and are not visible outside. That's why you never see rubber trees or all Ficus trees flower ever. I hope this answers the question.
Decay is important because it becomes fertilizer for the trees and other plants.
Ficus trees are amazingly sensitive to being moved and disturbed, so leaf drop does not mean that the tree is dead, just distressed. Freezing is another matter. If leaf drop is caused by freezing, then there is greater matter for concern. Without knowing the specific genus and more details on the environment, there is little to advise beyond patience.
If there were no decomposers then the ground would be littered with leaves, sticks, trees and dead animals. Also when something gets decomposed, its like fertilizer.
Yes wood comesfrom trees. Wood is a pencil or even paper. And it comes from the inside and outside of the tree. The out side is called bark the inside is called wood.
A specialty fertilizer or one that is low in nitrogen are the best fertilizers for fig trees (Ficus carica).Specifically, fig trees can be fertilized with fertilizers especially designed for fruit trees. Other wise, it favors fertilizers that are low in nitrogen. They need to concentrate on fruiting. Fertilizers high in phosphorus and potassium support fruiting whereas nitrogen emphasizes leafing out.
yes but it needs water and part shade part sun
Ficus trees like part sun and part shade. Also when they are outside you need to make sure that you water them more then you would with them indoors.
No, fig trees (Ficus carica) do not get an acid fertilizer.Specifically, fig trees benefit from the intake of phosphorus and potassium. Phosphorus is an acid-forming element. Potassium is an alkaline-forming element. The two nutrient ingredients work to cancel each other out into a neutral fertilizer.
Ficus trees are flowering plants, known as angiosperms.
They are both trees, fig trees in fact.

Ficus, and then something else depending on its specific species.
The scientific name for the ficus tree is Ficus. It is a genus of about 800 species of woody trees, shrubs, and vines in the family Moraceae.
The best type of fertilizer for pecan trees is a fertilizer which is high in nitrogen and zinc.
We generally find beehives on branches of deciduous trees such as Ficus religiosa.
