Thanks both. I wondered about something like that but knowing very little.....correction, nothing about plants, at this time, I thought I would ask!

Following on from your suggestion Gee, I researched it and found it to possibly be, Ficus Elastica. It looks similar although leaf is almost plain on the Elastica species.

Thanks again :0)-

Definitely looks like Ficus elastica 'Doescheri' which has a creamy white margin on the edge of the leaves and the red spine at the back of the leaf.

Thnaks to you all for your help on this one :0)-
