Variegated Schefflera, also known as Schefflera Arboricola or the Umbrella Plant, is a popular houseplant prized for its striking, variegated leaves. Here's a comprehensive guide to caring for this plant:

Description

  • Appearance: The variegated Schefflera has glossy, green leaves streaked with creamy yellow or white. Each leaf is composed of several leaflets, which radiate out from a central point like an umbrella, hence its nickname.
  • Size: In a domestic setting, it typically grows to about 4-6 feet tall, but can be pruned to maintain a desired size.

Care Guide

  1. Light Requirements:

    • Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause loss of variegation and leggy growth.
    • East or west-facing windows are ideal.
  2. Watering:

    • Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Over-watering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage.
    • Reduce watering in the winter when the plant's growth slows.
  3. Temperature and Humidity:

    • Thrives in average room temperatures, ideally between 15°C to 24°C (60°F to 75°F).
    • Avoid placing it near cold drafts or heat sources.
    • Prefers moderate to high humidity. Mist the leaves regularly or use a humidifier in dry environments.
  4. Soil and Fertilization:

    • Use a well-draining potting mix. A mix designed for houseplants or a blend with peat, pine bark, and perlite works well.
    • Fertilize lightly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
  5. Pruning and Maintenance:

    • Prune to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Pruning is best done in the spring.
    • Remove any yellow or damaged leaves to keep the plant healthy.
  6. Pest and Disease Management:

    • Check regularly for pests like spider mites, mealybugs, and aphids.
    • Use a mild insecticidal soap or neem oil to treat infestations.
  7. Repotting:

    • Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound.
    • Use a slightly larger pot each time to encourage growth.

Propagation

  • Propagate through stem cuttings. Place cuttings in water or a moist potting mix until they develop roots, then plant them in a pot.

Special Considerations

  • Schefflera plants are toxic to pets if ingested, so keep them out of reach of curious animals.

With proper care, a variegated Schefflera can be a long-lasting and attractive addition to your indoor plant collection. Regular monitoring and maintenance will ensure it stays healthy and vibrant.

Variable Heights: The height of our plants can vary by approximately +/- 10%. This natural fluctuation ensures you receive a unique and healthy specimen.

Plant Pot Sizes: Pot sizes may vary by approximately +/- 1cm. To ensure a proper fit, we recommend selecting a decorative pot that is 1-2cm larger than the stated plant pot size. For instance, if you purchase a plant in a 17cm pot, a 18 - 19cm decorative pot would be ideal.

Quarantining: All our houseplants are regularly sprayed with a preventative systemic bug treatment. We do our best to ensure a bug free growing environment however sometimes these can unfortunately be missed, as such we always recommend quarantining plants when they first enter your home and checking them upon arrival for bugs.
