    Schefflera Arboricola

    The Schefflera Arboricola, also known as the Umbrella Tree or Dwarf Umbrella Tree, is a popular plant known for its attractive, glossy foliage and easy care requirements. Native to Taiwan and South China, this plant is characterized by its bushy growth and umbrella-like leaf arrangement, which gives it its common name.

    The leaves of the Schefflera Arboricola are typically dark green, although variegated varieties with gold, yellow, or cream-colored patterns are also available. These leaves are palmately compound, meaning they radiate from a central point, creating a beautiful, umbrella-like canopy.

    The Schefflera Arboricola can grow up to 4-6 feet, but its size can be easily controlled with regular pruning. It's a versatile plant that can be grown as a bushy shrub, a single-stemmed tree, or even a bonsai.

    Caring for a Schefflera Arboricola involves providing it with bright, indirect light, regular watering, and well-draining soil. It's a relatively hardy plant that can tolerate a range of indoor conditions, although it prefers a warm, humid environment.

    With its lush, tropical appearance and low-maintenance care, the Schefflera Arboricola is a fantastic choice for adding a touch of greenery to homes, offices, and other indoor or outdoor spaces. Whether you're a seasoned plant enthusiast or a beginner, this plant is sure to bring a sense of nature and tranquility to your space.

     Caring For

    Ideal position Water Temperatures Food

     Caring for a Schefflera Arboricola, or Umbrella Tree, involves the following steps:

    1. Light: Schefflera Arboricola prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause leggy growth and loss of variegation in variegated varieties.

    2. Watering: Water your Schefflera Arboricola when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's better to err on the side of underwatering. Ensure the plant has good drainage.

    3. Humidity and Temperature: Schefflera Arboricola prefers a humid environment and temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C). You can increase humidity by misting the plant, placing it on a pebble tray with water, or using a humidifier.

    4. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix for your Schefflera Arboricola. A mix of peat moss and perlite or a general-purpose plant potting mix should work well.

    5. Fertilizing: Feed your Schefflera Arboricola with a balanced fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding to once a month during fall and winter.

    6. Pruning: Prune your Schefflera Arboricola to control its size and shape. Regular pruning can also encourage bushier growth. Always use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid disease transmission.

    7. Pests and Diseases: Schefflera Arboricola can be susceptible to pests like aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. Check the plant regularly for signs of pests and treat as necessary.

    8. Repotting: Repot your Schefflera Arboricola every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Always use a pot with drainage holes and fresh, well-draining potting mix.

    By following these care guidelines, your Schefflera Arboricola should thrive and continue to add a touch of tropical beauty.

        Silky and Soothing
        Color: Cream, Size: 2 Pack Queen(20"X 30")
        I thought I was getting 1 of the queen sized but I got 2. I got these for my Pomeranian's fuzzy pillow. He's always hot and these are very cooling and very good quality. He loves them and are very comfortable for him. They totally transformed his shaggy old pillow. I used the larger body pillow covers to replace the covers I had. They matched my bedspread perfectly. I use 2 body pillows along the exterior wall in my bedroom where there is cold coming through the floor in the winter. I'm sure I will enjoy them in the summer when it's hot too!

        Cooling fabric is Just what I needed
        Color: 03-black, Size: 20" X 26" (Pack of 4)
        I'm a hot sleeper. These cooling pillow cases are fantastic. It has ended soaked pillow cases. I paired these with waterproof pillow cases for extra pillow protection. I now sleep cooler and wake up dry. I also toss and turn less and wake up less frequently hot, sweaty and uncomfortable and I can sleep though the night. I don't need to flip my pillows over because of sweat. Both sides of these pillow cases have arc chill cooling fabric. They're soft, silky, breathable and comfortable to lay my head on. The colors to choose from is a wide selection. These look great on my king size bed. I love this fabric so much that I upgraded all of my pillows and blanket sheets to cooling fabric. I'm sold on these. The zipper is premium, sturdy and durable. My pillows fit perfectly on these cases. The cooling material is top notch high quality to me with great craftsmanship. I liked these ones so much that I bought more and plan to again. My partner seen and felt these and immediately went online to buy some blankets to go with the pillow cases I gifted. I also bought my son these and a few cooling blankets. These work best with a fan or air conditioner. Highly recommended and you won't regret this purchase if you're a hot sleeper to profusely sweating during sleep.

        Color is off, feels decent
        Color: 07-beige, Size: 20" X 26" (Pack of 2)
        Feels nice and very cooling to the touch. Although you can tell it definitely isn't cotton. I ordered the color beige but it is much more of a cream color.
