💧 Watering and Soil Requirements:

Thrives in well-draining soil. Water when the top 1–2 inches feel dry. Avoid overwatering — Schefflera dislikes soggy roots. A mix of garden soil, compost, and perlite works best.

🌱 Benefits:

• Improves indoor air quality by filtering toxins

• Elegant upright shape fits tight spaces

• Long-lasting and low effort to maintain

• Boosts interior aesthetics instantly

• Works great as a floor plant or decorative corner piece

✂️ Pruning and Propagation:

Prune to control size and encourage fuller growth. Cut just above a node. Propagate via stem cuttings placed in water or moist soil.

☀️ Sunlight and Placement:

Loves bright, indirect light. Can tolerate medium light but may grow slower. Avoid direct harsh sun, which can scorch the leaves. Ideal near windows or under skylights.

🌾 Fertilization and Maintenance:

Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer. Wipe leaves to remove dust and keep them shiny. Repot every 2–3 years to refresh soil.

🐛 Common Diseases and Pests:

Susceptible to spider mites, scale, and root rot if overwatered. Use neem oil spray and ensure proper drainage to avoid issues.

⏳ Time to Maturity & Flowering:

Fast-growing in the right conditions. Matures in 2–3 years. Rarely flowers indoors, but its foliage steals the show all year long.
