    Schefflera Arboricola

    The Schefflera Arboricola, also known as the Umbrella Tree or Dwarf Umbrella Tree, is a popular plant known for its attractive, glossy foliage and easy care requirements. Native to Taiwan and South China, this plant is characterized by its bushy growth and umbrella-like leaf arrangement, which gives it its common name.

    The leaves of the Schefflera Arboricola are typically dark green, although variegated varieties with gold, yellow, or cream-colored patterns are also available. These leaves are palmately compound, meaning they radiate from a central point, creating a beautiful, umbrella-like canopy.

    The Schefflera Arboricola can grow up to 4-6 feet, but its size can be easily controlled with regular pruning. It's a versatile plant that can be grown as a bushy shrub, a single-stemmed tree, or even a bonsai.

    Caring for a Schefflera Arboricola involves providing it with bright, indirect light, regular watering, and well-draining soil. It's a relatively hardy plant that can tolerate a range of indoor conditions, although it prefers a warm, humid environment.

    With its lush, tropical appearance and low-maintenance care, the Schefflera Arboricola is a fantastic choice for adding a touch of greenery to homes, offices, and other indoor or outdoor spaces. Whether you're a seasoned plant enthusiast or a beginner, this plant is sure to bring a sense of nature and tranquility to your space.

    Suitable Landscapes

    This plant has many different planting or landscaping options, including:

    • Container planting
    • Ground cover
    • Large areas
    • Alpine gardens
    • Coastal/saltwater gardens
    • Edging or borders
    • Mass planting

     Caring For

    Ideal position Water Temperatures Food

     Caring for a Schefflera Arboricola, or Umbrella Tree, involves the following steps:

    1. Light: Schefflera Arboricola prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause leggy growth and loss of variegation in variegated varieties.

    2. Watering: Water your Schefflera Arboricola when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's better to err on the side of underwatering. Ensure the plant has good drainage.

    3. Humidity and Temperature: Schefflera Arboricola prefers a humid environment and temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C). You can increase humidity by misting the plant, placing it on a pebble tray with water, or using a humidifier.

    4. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix for your Schefflera Arboricola. A mix of peat moss and perlite or a general-purpose plant potting mix should work well.

    5. Fertilizing: Feed your Schefflera Arboricola with a balanced fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding to once a month during fall and winter.

    6. Pruning: Prune your Schefflera Arboricola to control its size and shape. Regular pruning can also encourage bushier growth. Always use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid disease transmission.

    7. Pests and Diseases: Schefflera Arboricola can be susceptible to pests like aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. Check the plant regularly for signs of pests and treat as necessary.

    8. Repotting: Repot your Schefflera Arboricola every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Always use a pot with drainage holes and fresh, well-draining potting mix.

    By following these care guidelines, your Schefflera Arboricola should thrive and continue to add a touch of tropical beauty.

        Pieces chewed off
        Color: white & green
        My Aussiedoodle loves it. I throw it down the hallway, it bounces crazy, and he chases it. The only complaint is that he can't chew much of the ball part. So now I have to have it put away and brought out for special playtime.

        This is Willow The Dog’s favorite toy!
        There is not much that needs to be said about this, frankly, amazing dog toy find. After about 6 months, Willow absolutely loves this seemingly indestructible, soft stick toy. She was born a stick dog and has always enjoyed fetch with tree limbs, balls, frisbees…And like most dogs, loves tug-o-war and chewing. I thought I was buying a <$4 toy stick that I expected my girl would destroy fairly readily. What I actually received was something that didn’t really match the description because it had MORE features and uses than I expected. Anyway, the short of it is in the video. What she loves: Fetching: I don’t know how dogs see colors, but I can confirm that my dog finds this toy highly visible day and night. This claim is based on my observations of how she retrieves this toy compared to real sticks, yellow and blue tennis balls, a large real bone, and rope toys both night and day, as I work late, so much of my one on one time with our pup happens around midnight to 1am with no outdoor lighting so we don’t disturb sleeping neighbors as much. Additionally, I find this toy highly visible in all conditions, which would make finding it in the grass after Willow is worn out and goes inside easier, except that she loves the toy so much that she always brings it in with her. Tug-o-war: Being a soft, ultra-durable material, this toy eagerly pulls double duty as a tugging toy. Dog teeth sink into the orange material by compressing it. They do not puncture the orange part, or at least not that I’ve noticed while casually examining it, making this toy last indefinitely, so far as I can tell. The size of the stick is roughly an inch in diameter and maybe ≈14-16” long, so it is, I think, a perfect size for my medium sized Australian Shepherd’s mouth. She can grip it solidly in her back teeth, side teeth, front teeth, and even if she has only two or three teeth in just a corner, she can always get a good, comfortable grip. No sharp, jagged edges of frayed plastic to abrade or irritate the inside of Willow’s mouth, gums, or cheeks and no orange material breaks off and gets swallowed. The blue material is somewhat more rigid, like a plastic, BUT is still fairly soft and while it does show some bite marks, it is still quite durable and is, I will estimate, at least 95% intact after about 6 months of average three or four 15-20 minute sessions each week. Additionally, the size happens to be perfect for my large hands, but also feels like it is appropriately sized to be easily manageable by most people. This toy is VERY flexible and gives both Willow and I excellent maneuverability and pulling left to right and up and down and back and forth and to and fro as violently and aggressively as we can manage with out the rigidity of other objects shifting uncomfortably in her mouth or my hand. The stick is long enough to accommodate both my large hand and her mouth, even both of my hands on either end with her biting in the middle. Chewing: This not Willow’s favorite chew toy, but to be fair, it isn’t really marketed as a chew toy, so I feel the degree to which it fulfills that function is “good”, which I consider to just be an added bonus feature AND an extremely good value for the money. Anyway, she brings it inside when we are done playing outside and chews on it occasionally, apparently when she wants a break from her seemingly endless and evidently boring selection of toys, enrichment gadgets, kids, neighboring dogs, and family cats. Summary: At $4, even if your dog picks it up and walks on her or his hind legs to dispose of it immediately upon presenting it to them, it will be worth it just to see that, but if your dog loves it as much as mine, you might, like me, be so pleased with it's contribution to your dog’s life, you may start doubting your sanity when the strangest thought creeps into your head as you actually consider “refunding the seller” by sending them an additional $3.94 because they absolutely deserve to be paid more for this wonderful toy. Enjoy!

        Perfect Toy
        My dog loves this ! It is very sturdy, very strong, but flexible. It feels soft, but seems chew proof, even for my 100 pound Cane Corso. The stick shape is more practical than a ball; it doesn't roll off or get lost under furniture.

        Good toy, strong yet soft!
        This was one of my best toy purchases for our GSD! He’s a rough playing dog with a hard mouth! Toy destroyer! This he loves to fetch, tug, carry, and chew on. I never really expected it to last when I got it. Surprise! Almost two months of rigorous daily play and it’s still almost like new!

        Great cost effective chew toy for an aggressive chewer
        Bought multiple. Still have a few in the package because the others are still going strong. Nice heft to throw them a good distance, durable enough for a heeler that is a very aggressive chewer to not destroy them after a month, and easy to see when they leave them in the grass. Good size, Good weight, Excellent durability, and keeps their attention longer than a actual stick.
