Rubber Tree Seeds (Hevea brasiliensis) – Para Rubber, Dahomey Rubber

General Description
The Rubber Tree (Hevea brasiliensis), also known as Para Rubber or Dahomey Rubber, is a fast-growing, tropical tree native to the Amazon rainforest. It is the primary source of natural rubber, cultivated in large plantations across Southeast Asia, Africa, and South America. The tree is known for its tall, straight trunk, dense canopy, and milky latex sap, which is harvested to produce rubber.

Plant Characteristics
Rubber Trees grow rapidly, reaching heights of 15–30 meters in optimal conditions. The tree has a smooth, light gray bark and compound leaves with three leaflets. Small, yellow-green flowers appear in clusters, followed by capsule-like fruits containing large, brown seeds. The tree’s most valuable feature is its latex, extracted by tapping the bark.

Cultivation Recommendations

Light: Requires full sun for optimal growth.
