  1. india-rubber tree

    The India-rubber tree is a type of evergreen tree, scientifically known as Hevea brasiliensis, native to South America but extensively cultivated in various tropical regions including India. It is primarily known for its latex sap, which can be processed to produce natural rubber. The tree can grow up to 30-40 meters high and has a life span of about 35 years. The term "India-rubber" comes from the historical use of its sap in India, where it was used for waterproofing before the material was widely adopted for industrial uses in the West.
