What kind of plant do I have?

Question

I received a plant as a gift. I don’t know what kind of plant it is. It has very thick rubber, oblong leaves. The stem is also thick. Looks like it will get grow large. Was wondering what kind and care.
Thanks, Melanie

While a picture would help us know for certain, it sounds like a rubber tree plant from your description. This article will help if that's what you have (and you can look at the picture to compare to what you have): https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/rubber-tree/how-to-care-for-a-rubber-tree-plant.htm
