Polyscias scutellaria ‘Fabian’, often called the Fabian Aralia or Shield Aralia, is a striking tropical plant from the Araliaceae family, native to the Pacific Islands and Southeast Asia. It’s adored for its compact, tree-like form and richly coloured foliage that gives interiors a refined, contemporary look.

This elegant plant features thick, woody stems that support rounded, coin-shaped leaves with a glossy finish. The upper sides of the leaves are a deep emerald green, while the undersides display dramatic shades of plum to burgundy-purple, giving the plant a two-tone effect. As it matures, Polyscias ‘Fabian’ naturally forms a small indoor tree with a clean, upright silhouette — perfect for adding height and structure to modern living spaces.

Unlike many indoor trees, Fabian Aralia stays manageable in size and is ideal for bright rooms, hallways, and offices where its sculptural beauty can be appreciated.


Polyscias scutellaria ‘Fabian’ – Care Guide

Light

Prefers bright, indirect light. It will tolerate moderate light but grows best in bright conditions that bring out its deep leaf colours. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the foliage.

Watering

Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. In winter, reduce watering slightly. Overwatering is the most common cause of leaf drop.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers warmth, 18–28°C. Avoid draughts and cold temperatures below 15°C.

  • Humidity: Moderate humidity (50–70%) helps maintain lush foliage. Mist occasionally or use a pebble tray in dry indoor air.

Soil and Potting

Use a rich, free-draining, peat-free compost mixed with perlite for aeration. Ensure the pot has good drainage holes. Repot every 2–3 years in spring to refresh the soil and support healthy growth.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted balanced liquid fertiliser. Pause feeding in winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune lightly to maintain shape or control height. Trim off any yellowing or damaged leaves at the base. Wipe the glossy foliage occasionally with a damp cloth to keep it free of dust and enhance its natural shine.

Growth and Maturity

A slow-growing plant that typically reaches 1–1.5 metres tall indoors. Its upright, branching habit and contrasting foliage make it a natural focal point.

Common Issues

  • Leaf drop: Often caused by overwatering, low temperatures, or sudden environmental changes.

  • Yellowing leaves: Waterlogged soil or poor drainage.

  • Curling leaves: Low humidity or underwatering.

  • Pests: Occasionally mealybugs, scale, or spider mites.

Background and Benefits

Polyscias scutellaria has long been used in tropical landscaping due to its resilience and natural bonsai-like form. The ‘Fabian’ cultivar stands out for its compact size and rich, dark leaf tones. It’s a popular choice for adding structure, sophistication, and a touch of the tropics to interior décor.

Great for reluctant readers
Format: Paperback
This book is great for reluctant readers. I got this for my niece and her mother asked if I knew of any other graphic novels like this one because of how much my niece loved reading it. I ended up reading it and the story is very enjoyable and inspiring. The art is exceptional. I was very happy to find that there are more in the series. I bought both the first and second ones for my step daughter and other nieces this Christmas. Highly recommend!

Foster Care! Magic Paint! Superheroes! OH MY!
Format: Kindle
This was a great read. I loved everything about it. The artwork is vivid. The main character’s personality is spot-on. The humor was great. Ashley is a girl in a world where she is herself and nobody else. At least, that’s what she thinks. Really, she’s a girl stuck in foster care because her dad’s in jail. She has a carefree attitude on the outside, but on the inside she’s really tender-hearted. Then one day a new family shows up, attempting foster care with Ashley. She’s living pretty nicely there and she’s made a friend named Luke. Then one day her foster mom comes home acting kind of strange. Later, Ashley decides to snoop into what’s in that mysterious suitcase her foster mom brought in and hid in a closet. She and Luke find paint. Lots of tubes of paint. Ashley puts them on her skin, because she “likes the texture.” This is where I think it’s waaaaay too obvious that what she’s doing has to be specifically made like that for the storyline. It’s okay though, they do an okay job of hiding it. Anyway. These paints are magic paints that give the person who wears them superpowers! So of course Ashley has to go and use them and be a superhero she calls ‘Primer’. But her foster mom’s job wants those paints she brought home back. So they send their roughest, toughest soldier to retrieve them. Ashley, of course, has a fight with her foster mom about it, and Ashley decides to run away, taking the paints with her. Then obviously the soldier dude shows up, with a bunch of robots. There it just turns into your normal superhero fight scene, but then Ashley loses and the paints are taken except the teleportation one. The soldier, by the way, is named Strack. So then Ashley’s like, “Oh no, I’ll neeever be a hero” even though obviously she will, this is a superhero story. Suddenly her phone is ringing. It’s her foster dad and mom. She picks up their video call and it’s STRACK! He’s adult-napped her foster parents, of course. She debates going to fight Strack, or to just leave it. She goes with leave it until she looks up and sees a painting she made and this suddenly gives her confidence, for reasons unknown. So then there’s another big fight scene with Strack, but Ashley is overconfident like she knows she can’t die, it’s a book and that would be devastating for little ones reading it. Anyway, she wins and frees her parents and they all live happily ever after. So, this story ends in a cliffhanger that’s not a very good one. It’s just Ashley’s REAL dad seeing her on TV from when she went out and was a superhero the first time, and he’s like, “You’re not Primer, every father knows his daughter’s eyes, ASHLEY. See you soon.” So if I was hanging from a cliff here, I would be attached to it with a safety cable and I would be laying on the top of the cliff, with only my foot hanging off. It’s not much of a cliffhanger. This was a great book about a female superhero. Oh, and another thing I forgot to mention, there is a page you should skip if you are reading to a child under seven. Page…. Let’s see here… oh yes. Page seventy-seven. It involves a gun and likely shooting afterwards, but it isn’t shown. I am a very sensitive person, and even I, an almost-teen was kind of rustled by it. Anyways, great story, lovely artwork, good book. I’m rounding up from 4.5 stars. -written by a tween
