Default Nursery Pot or Upgrade to a Chic Chive Pot
Our plants come in the standard nursery pot unless you opt for one of our snazzy Chive pots. Keep in mind, each plant is a unique snowflake—size, shape, and quirks may vary. We do our best to deliver a plant that resembles the online glam shot and will thrive in your home, but perfection is a tall order.
Pot Size vs. Plant Size: It’s Not You, It’s the Container
We like to keep things almost simple—plants are measured by the size of the pot they’re in, not how tall or fabulous they currently are. When someone says a plant is “in a 6-inches,” they’re talking about the diameter of the container, not the plant itself. That gorgeous fiddle leaf fig might be towering over your sofa while technically still being “in a 10-inch pot.” Height? Totally subjective. It depends on the plant species, its mood that day, and how mature it feels like being. So next time you’re plant shopping and wondering why your “small” monstera could double as a room divider—blame the pot. Not the plant.

How to take care of your Schefflera
Ah, the Schefflera plant — the drama-free diva of the houseplant world. Often referred to as the Umbrella Tree (for obvious reasons), this tropical beauty flaunts shiny, hand-shaped leaves that resemble, you guessed it, an umbrella. But don’t worry, it won’t demand spa days or essential oils to thrive. The Schefflera is low-maintenance, stylish, and surprisingly forgiving. Here's a quick guide to keep your Schefflera glowing.
Care Level
Easy: Beginner-Friendly
If your track record with plants is less than stellar, don't panic. Schefflera plants are known for their resilience. While not entirely indestructible (you do need to give them some attention), they’re great starter plants.
Light Requirements
Bright, indirect light is your Schefflera's best friend. Too much direct sunlight can scorch those fabulous leaves, while too little light will make the plant leggy and sad. Near an east- or west-facing window is ideal.
Watering
Keep it simple. Let the top inch or two of soil dry out between waterings. Overwatering is the fast track to root rot, and trust us, no one has time for that. Reduce watering frequency during the winter.
Humidity and Temperature
Schefflera isn’t fussy but does appreciate a bit of humidity. If your home is desert-level dry, a light misting every few days or a humidity tray will keep the leaves perky.
Keep things warm and cozy. Schefflera prefers temperatures between 60°F and 80°F (15°C to 27°C). Avoid drafty windows and cold blasts from your A/C.
Soil
Use a well-draining potting mix. Any indoor houseplant soil will do, especially one with a bit of perlite or sand for better drainage.
Interaction with Pets
Sorry, fur parents—Schefflera is not pet-friendly. If ingested, it can cause vomiting, drooling, and mouth irritation in cats and dogs. If your pets are nibblers, consider placing the plant out of reach or opting for a pet-safe alternative.
Schefflera Family
The Schefflera, a.k.a. Umbrella Tree, hails from the tropics of Taiwan and Australia and brings bold, leafy drama to any room. It comes in two main varieties: Schefflera arboricola (dwarf umbrella tree) and Schefflera actinophylla (the bigger, taller version). These plants are known for their lush foliage that grows in circular clusters, creating that iconic umbrella look.
They're fast-growing, forgiving, and a dream for people who tend to forget watering day exists.
The Self-Watering Pot Who’s More Responsible Than Most Roommates
Remembering to water your plants is a noble goal, but life happens (and sometimes Netflix just won’t pause itself). Stylish, smart, and suspiciously more nurturing than your last situationship. Ryan the self-watering pot has a built-in reservoir that keeps your green buddy hydrated without you having to lift a finger—Making sure your plant stays alive even when you forget it exists. Finally, a Ryan you can actually trust.
Feed Your Plants Like You Actually Know What You’re Doing
Your plants called—they're tired of your "just water and hope" approach. Give themVerteRx, the premium plant food packed with vitamins and growth boosters. Stronger roots, lusher leaves, and fewer judgmental stares from your fiddle-leaf fig. Because even plants deserve proper nutrition (unlike your diet).
