Umbrella plant care is effortless, making it a great plant if you’re not used to houseplants. The main things are to ensure you don’t overwater and put it in indirect light, so the leaves don’t shrivel and burn. It will also tolerate low light - in fact, they grow more slowly and become leggy in low light, which is a great look!
The Umbrella Plant or Schefflera plant makes a wonderful indoor plant gift. We’ll even deliver it along with a free handwritten card - include your gift message at the basket stage of the checkout, and we’ll do the rest. We won’t include any telltale paperwork either!
