I have a rubber tree I want to plant outside. Will it survive winters in Tennessee? Also, what kind of mulch should I use. Thank You, Sherry

If you have no hard frosts and you place it outside starting in the springtime so it can get used to the area all summer and grow a good root system before the winter, yes. Even if you have an occasional mild frost and it hurts the plant, then with the good strong roots the plant can come back. But if you do get hard frosts, then no, you shouldn't, but you could move it indoors during the winter and let it enjoy the outside in the summer time.
