    If it isn’t growing, it likely needs a bigger pot. It doesn’t have room to grow.

      I haven’t seen any roots at the bottom that would indicate that it’s root bound, are rubber plants fast growers?

      They are not fast growers! And they like to be in tight pots. It took me maybe over a year to get new growth on my Burgundy. Definitely fertilize during the growing season - that helped me!

    Hard to tell from photo, but is that a cutting? In water prop? Or just one leg of a full plant that lost its budding end? If the latter, mine had a similar issue, its bud got damaged and sat for months with nothing, but just a few weeks ago when weather starting warming it started making new leafs again, so its def possible with patience.

      sorry I should have taken a full picture of the plant. it’s a full plant in a pot. when I received it it had that bump at the end, it’s just one stem with a few leaves

    I wouldn’t repot unless it’s rootbound. It might not be getting enough light, or maybe consider adding fertilizer into your routine to see how it takes it

    These plants go thru a dormant period. To stimulate growth, you can dead-head the top part and chop it down to the next leaf.
