Schefflera Twisted

5.500 MDL

The Schefflera plant, Schefflera Arboricola, native to South Asia and parts of Australia, is often called the umbrella plant, and for good reason. The five to seven leaflets that make up each long-stalked leaf resemble umbrellas.

 

The foliage will keep its healthy, glossy appearance if you spray it daily with water at room temperature. Being a medium light lover, placing it in strong direct sunlight will burn its leaves. It will also not do well in areas of extreme light deficiency and is best placed near a window – even a north-facing one. Yellowing and drooping leaves are probably a sign that the plant is overheating. Leave the soil to dry out longer between waterings. Brown, dry leaves – may be caused by underwatering. 

 

To control the height of the plant and increase its bushy appearance, cut back any overhanging branches in spring. Don’t cut more than 30% of the plant as this can cause shock. It is considered poisonous to humans and pets. The sap in the leaves can cause mild skin irritation.


The plant comes in a basic nursery pot.
