So proud of my lil rubber tree, it’s had a rough year with both thrips AND spider mites but we’re finally past all that and it’s begun to branch for the first time!!

Do you have any tips for getting it to branch like that for me!?! Mine has lost a lot of lower leaves and now it’s tall and has small leaves at the top with growth, but I’d love a branch or two lol

It gets a nice amount of direct early morning sunlight and the rest of the day it has lots of bright indirect light. Plus our flat is very humid. My only advice would be try and boost the humidity and give it a little extra light maybe?
