In my opinion (other than a Zizi) one of the easiest plants to take care of! I get at least 2 new little leaves every week! It’s under a 2500K, low setting, Grow light. It only needs to be watered once a week. Tough little plant that just keeps going! Highly recommend to anyone.

*These plants are in low-light areas (bookshelves) in a west-facing living room with massive windows. I water them when the soil is really dry or when Greg reminds me. I rotate them and switch them when I water them.*
I have two of these small scheffleras. We have been coexisting now for several years. Because they are in smaller, more shallow pots and because I don't water them often and give them they humidity they would ask for (if they could speak), they have remained quite small. Once a year, I pinch off a new sprout or two, but not often.
Perhaps we are just past the honeymoon phase of our relationship, but I don't remember being totally enamored with these plants to begin with. I got them because they look good on my bookshelves. They still look good on my bookshelves.
