Description

The Umbrella Plant (Schefflera Arboricola) is a lush, easy-care tropical houseplant known for its glossy, umbrella-like leaves. Thriving in bright, indirect light, this hardy plant can live for over 25 years with proper care. Though it rarely flowers indoors, its vibrant green foliage adds a fresh, tropical feel to any space.

Schefflera prefers well-draining, loamy soil and warm temperatures above 60°F. While it’s a resilient plant, all parts of it are mildly toxic to humans and can be harmful to pets if ingested. Its adaptability and longevity make it a great choice for plant enthusiasts looking for a reliable indoor green companion.
