I've had one of these for a couple years, rescued it from a bar! I grow it indoors because I live in Chicago. When I got it, it was a very sad lil thing and is now it's over 4ft tall! one of my favorite plants, thanks Nel!

I’ve had mine for over 20 years indoors. Such an easy plant to have.

nice plant I have many tropical plants accustomed to my house temp in northern ontario canada zone 4b. love my Schefflera.. it's dropping leaves, think it was overwatered crossing my fingers and i'll fix it. good tips thx

[@ShadowNight-kt3dz]

I love schefflera as they make beautiful hedges or trees. And the flowers are gorgeous. Unfortunately as I am in south Louisiana they rarely reach more than 6 feet tall due to freezing temperatures in winter. I’ve noticed they look good and green until about 25 or 26 degrees F. And they’re root hardy to about 19 F. I’ve always had schefflera around, whether in the landscape or in my house growing up so it’s a bit of a nostalgic feeling seeing one.

Hi - I used to live in Santa Barbara CA where Scheffleras grow outdoors. The Tupids would reach 20" tall. And yes, the flowers are gorgeous. Nell

[@agood1]

So excited to lean this plant flowers yay

[@terrichristenson432]

Thank You for the video. Lots of good info, and I enjoyed your camera presence.

I've had this plant for over 15 years inside my home in Tennessee and it is about 7 feet tall, just one long stalk. The leaves occasionally fall from the bottom leaving just the top covered. It has sat in the same window getting plenty of light. What do I do with this plant, the top is pretty the bottom half is not. I hate to cut it back it would only be a stalk (stick in the mud -lol). I'm not sure it would grow back and the half I cut off could I put it in water to get it to root to plant again.

[@agood1]

The only way to get a plant to grow more branches is to cut it. Start small don't cut the whole top off, cut back to a node with a leaf. As it starts to branch you and begin trimming those branches to create more splits and branching. And yes you can propagate this plant in water or soil.

Mine is full on top and has a bare trunk. How can I get it bushy on the trunk? My plant is about 13 inches high from bottom of pot to top pf plant.

You're welcome. I moved my Ponytail Palm to the middle of my patio so I could see it from the living room. Love both those plants! Nell

Thanks for sharing!

My pleasure. Lots more plant videos to come! Nell

[@steeleelizabeth68]

Hello, I like your videos I live in Phoenix, I bought 2 Schefflera Amate. However where I bought them from soaked the soil with water. I’m afraid it will get root rot. Ive had it for about 2 weeks. It’s winter now, would it be ok to transplant it into a dryer soil? Thanks 😊

[@rosesparks5148]

Yeah totally. Letting it sit in cold soggy soil for too long is a sure way to get root rot.

[@MelodyMutanu]

how do I make my amate produce more leaves like yours? mine has a long stem and very scarce leaves only at the top.

[@lucasgiles9459]

lighting and watering is a huge thing this is what I have found when growing mine try that and see if there is any difference

La verdad tendré que aprender a hablar inglés para saber que dice la señora o señorita

[@bebe60602]

Is this the same plant as the Umbrella plant that is often sold with the stems twisted together?

[@kevinjay171]

I believe you are thinking about money tree (pachira aqutica ) although umbrella tree doe's come braided in trinette variety .
