Product Detail
Native to Australia, as well as New Guinea, Schefflera is a lively and lush houseplant that features leaves that form a pattern that looks like an umbrella. This gives it its common name ‘Umbrella Tree’. It makes for a great houseplant as it is very tolerant of indoor conditions, growing to 6 feet tall indoors given the right conditions.
Schefflera ‘Dwarf Umbrella Plant’
-
Lighting: Your Schefflera prefers bright indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions as well. As it grows it leans towards the light. Rotate your plant a half-turn once a month to keep it looking full and even.
-
Watering: Water your Schefflera thoroughly when the top 75% of soil is dry. Allow the water to run out of the drainage hole in the bottom of the pot, discarding any water that flows into the saucer. Your Schefflera is a very hardy plant and doesn’t mind if you occasionally wait too long between watering.
