Eucommia ulmoides - Chinese Rubber Tree Perennials Some leaves turn green asA small tree native to China that is cultivated for its bark that is highly valued in traditional Chinese medicine. The tree also extrudes a natural latex that was once used as a substitute for the traditional rubber tree. Quite a hardy tree that so far has handled 10C for me without a problem. The Chinese Rubber Tree is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN.
