Schefflera Arboricola
Also known as the Dwarf Umbrella Tree, Schefflera arboricola is a classic tropical houseplant with glossy green leaves that fan out like little umbrellas. Native to Taiwan and Hainan, it is a smaller-growing relative of the larger Schefflera actinophylla, making it a great choice for bright interiors without taking over the room.
This is a hardy, adaptable plant that does best in bright, indirect light, with a few hours of gentle morning sun if available. Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry, fully saturating the soil and allowing excess water to drain. Schefflera prefers a well-draining tropical soil mix and does not like to sit wet for too long.
With enough light, mature plants can produce tiny red flowers in summer, followed by clusters of orange-red berries. The berries are decorative only and should not be eaten. This plant is toxic to pets.
