Schefflera arboricola, commonly known as the Umbrella Tree, is a popular indoor plant admired for its lush, glossy foliage and compact size. The plant features clusters of dark green, shiny leaves that radiate from a central stem, resembling the shape of an umbrella, giving it a distinctive and attractive appearance. Its bushy growth habit and resilience make it an excellent choice for both homes and offices.

Schefflera arboricola thrives in bright, indirect light but can adapt to lower light conditions. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry, avoiding overwatering to prevent root rot. This plant is relatively drought-tolerant and can go without water for short periods, making it a low-maintenance option for indoor spaces.
