What is the botanical name of peepul leaves?

Leaves of Ficus religiosa tree


Are ficus elastica and balete tree same species?

No, Ficus elastica and the balete tree (Ficus religiosa) are not the same species. Ficus elastica, commonly known as the rubber plant, is native to Southeast Asia and is known for its large, glossy leaves. In contrast, Ficus religiosa, often referred to as the sacred fig or bodhi tree, is significant in Buddhism and is native to the Indian subcontinent. While both belong to the Ficus genus, they have distinct characteristics and cultural significance.

Is rubber tree is a flowering plant?

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.
