The ideal temperature for this plant is between 18°C ​​and 24°C . It does well in normal room temperatures and should be protected from drafts or large temperature fluctuations.

Water requirement

The Schefflera has an average water requirement. Keep the soil slightly moist, but avoid allowing the roots to stand in standing water to prevent root rot. Allow the top layer of the potting soil to dry out before watering again. In the summer months, the plant needs a little more water, while the frequency of watering can be reduced slightly in the winter. Mist the leaves occasionally to maintain the humidity, which is beneficial to the plant.

Soil and nutrition

Fertilize the plant every four to six weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid plant food. Follow the instructions for the correct amount to avoid burning and make sure the plant gets enough nutrients for healthy growth.
