    Schefflera Variegated

    Botanical Name: Schefflera arboricola 'Variegata'

    Common Name(s): Variegated Schefflera, Dwarf Umbrella Tree

    Schefflera Variegated, also known as the Dwarf Umbrella Tree, is a visually striking plant with glossy, variegated leaves that feature a mix of dark green and cream or yellowish-white edges. This compact shrub can grow up to 3-4 feet in height indoors and is known for its attractive, umbrella-shaped clusters of leaves that make it a popular choice for homes and offices. It’s an easy-to-care-for plant, thriving in moderate to bright, indirect light and providing a bold yet elegant touch to your space.

    Schefflera Variegated prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it’s important to let the soil dry between waterings. This plant adapts well to average room temperatures (65-75°F or 18-24°C) and can tolerate some fluctuations in humidity, though it will benefit from higher humidity levels.

    Air Purifying Qualities:

    • Toxin Removal: Schefflera Variegated is effective at removing common indoor toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene, making it a great addition to improve the air quality of your home.
    • Oxygen Production: Like most houseplants, it absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, contributing to a fresher and cleaner atmosphere.
    • Humidity Regulation: This plant can slightly increase humidity levels through transpiration, which can benefit drier indoor environments.

    Note: Schefflera Variegated is mildly toxic to pets (cats and dogs) if ingested, causing symptoms such as drooling, vomiting, or lack of appetite. It is recommended to keep the plant out of reach of pets to avoid any health concerns.

    Care Insights & Expert Tips

    Sunlight

    Bright, indirect light: Schefflera thrive in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch their beautiful patterned leaves. The leaves really pops under good light, so the more bright, filtered sunlight it gets, the better.

    Water

    Water regularly: Every 7-10 days, but always check the soil first. During the winter, you can cut back on watering, as the plant’s growth slows.

    Temperature

    Warm temperatures: Schefflera prefer cool temperatures, ideally between 65-75°F (18-24°C) with low-to-moderate humidity.

      1. Fertilize regularly: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). During the fall and winter months, stop fertilizing as the plant is dormant and not actively growing.
      2. Monitor for pests: While not overly susceptible to pests, Schefflera can occasionally attract spider mites, mealybugs, or scale. Keep an eye out for any infestations and treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap. Cleaning the leaves with a damp cloth helps to prevent dust buildup and deter pests.
      3. Pruning: Prune your Schefflera regularly to promote healthy growth.
      4. Repot as needed: Repot your Schefflera every 2-3 years in a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that’s only 1-2 inches larger in diameter than the current one to avoid water retention issues.

      FAQs

      Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

      If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee.

      Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

      Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

      How can I change my order details?

      If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

      Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

      Where do you ship?

      We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

      Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

      Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
