Schefflera - Umbrella PlantA native of the forests of Taiwan, Schefflera arboricola can get 26 to 30 feet tall (8 9 m) outdoors, though it will generally top out at 8 to 10 feet (2 3 m) tall indoors. There are dwarf versions, popular for bonsai, that stay much smaller. Care and Planting Like most houseplants, umbrella plants need good drainage so that excess moisture in the soil doesnt lead to death by root rot. Plant in a pot with a drainage hole, ideally in a peat moss based
