The major commercial source of natural rubber latex is the Pará rubber tree ( Hevea brasiliensis) a member of the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. This species is preferred because it grows well under cultivation. A properly managed tree responds to wounding by producing more latex for several years. Mesoamerican trees are domesticated plants of Mesoamerica , established by agricultural developments and practices over several thousand years of pre-Columbian history, include maize and capsicum. Melaleuca trees have white flowers which are small and crowded in bottlebrush-like spikes at branch tips.
