Schefflera arboricola - Dwarf Umbrella Tree

Schefflera arboricola is often called the Dwarf Umbrella Tree because its glossy, palmate leaves are delightfully petite, in the classic umbrella-like shape. Native to Taiwan and Hainan, this evergreen shrub stays much smaller than some other members of the Schefflera genus, but can still grow to impressive proportions indoors, with an upright but full growth habit. Its deep green foliage contrasts beautifully with a wide variety of decor styles, making this one of our go-to indoor trees.

PLANT CARE

• Light: Medium to bright indirect light
• Water: Water when the top 1-2" of soil feels dry
• Considerations: If the plant becomes leggy, increase its light. Take care not to over-water
