My rubber plant is about 6 years old, six foot high, very strong and healthy green leaves, but during a very cold snap while we were on holiday the leaves have all gone brown, dry and are falling of.If you scrape the trunk its is still green underneath and there is a small shoot with four green leaves right at the base of the trunk, but all the rest of the leaves are dead.What if anything can I do to bring it back as it was?
your rubber plant will grow new leaves at the top but if you cut off the ends of the tall leggy trunks the plant will grow new limbs and get bushier ,you could also air layer the plant to multiply the number of plants you have.If nothing else works you can cut the entire plant down and new limbs will sprout along the trunk ,usually where leaves have fallen off.
