Schefflera Arboricola Variegata

Well, this tropical plant with big lush green leaves will make your Tarzan fantasies come true. 

The Schefflera arboricola Variegata is also known as the Dwarf Umbrella Tree. It’s an easy-care, fast-growing houseplant that will transform your room from bland to Tarzan-friendly in the blink of an eye.

Using larger plants to redesign a room is a cost-effective and healthy way to improve your living space. Plants cleanse the air of toxins and bring happy nature into your home.

An umbrella tree is easy to care for, just keep it away from direct sunlight, and water when the potting mix has dried down to a few cms. Learn how to care for your indoor plants on our blog page ‘The quick start guide: Indoor plants’

Quick Facts: 

• What to use me for: I bring a jungle theme alive and brighten a bland room with rich green and white foliage.
• I grow to: I’ll reach 1-2 metres high by 2 metres wide in the ground but will stay much smaller in a container as an indoor plant
• Where to place me: I like it light and bright but I can also handle darker spots in your house. Keep my foliage away from the direct sunlight or these magnificent leaves will turn brown and crispy.
• Soil conditions: I like fertile well-drained soil or potting mix – pot with a hole in it is best!
