FAQs
FAQs
Will it keep its variegation in low light?
Bright indirect light keeps variegation vivid; in lower light, new leaves may show less yellow.
Is Schefflera safe for pets?
No - it contains calcium oxalate crystals and is a commonly flagged toxic houseplant. Keep it away from pets and children.
How do I keep it bushy rather than leggy?
Pinch the growing tips regularly, which encourages new side shoots instead of tall, sparse stems.
