I took over the care of our apartment building's lobby plants a little over a month ago, and I have identified most of them so far, except this one. This is a side view; following is a better view of the leaves, from the top.
I must be doing something right so far, because it had two leaves when I started, and its fourth is now unfurling. To be sure of the proper care and feeding, however, it would help to know what it is called!
What is this and how do I keep it happy?
Looks like rubber tree, Ficus elastica http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/718/
Maybe provide additional moisture in dish w/water for humidity.......
