Description
Schefflera is a large genus of tropical plants that includes two species that make wonderful houseplants. The larger Schefflera actinophylla (sometimes called the umbrella plant or umbrella tree) features long, shiny, oval green leaves that droop gracefully from a central stalk, resembling an umbrella. Schefflera arboricola (sometimes called dwarf Schefflera) features smaller, glossy leaves, sometimes with creamy variegation. Other than the smaller size, it looks very similar to its taller cousin. Schefflera prefer bright, indirect light, but be sure to keep out of hot, direct sunlight. Water when the soil in the pot dries out, then give it a deep and thorough soaking but be sure to not let the plant sit in water.
