Schefflera arboricola Madame De Smet

Schefflera arboricola Madame De Smet

Description Schefflera arboricola 'Madame De Smet' is an attractive, compact, and variegated variety of the Dwarf Umbrella Tree. Known for its glossy, palmate leaves that are green with creamy-white margins, this plant adds a tropical touch to indoor and outdoor spaces. Its elegant foliage makes it a popular choice for homes and offices. Flowers Indoors, Schefflera arboricola 'Madame De Smet' rarely flowers. When it does bloom, it produces small, inconspicuous clusters of greenish-yellow flowers. Outdoors, it might flower more frequently under optimal conditions. Foliage The plant’s primary feature is its glossy, palmate leaves, which are divided into 7-9 leaflets. The leaves are dark green with creamy-white variegation along the margins, creating a striking contrast and a visually appealing pattern. Fruit If flowering occurs, it may produce small, round, orange or red berries. However, fruiting is uncommon indoors. Form and Size Schefflera 'Madame De Smet' has a compact and bushy growth habit, typically reaching a height of 1-1.5 meters (3-5 feet) indoors. When grown outdoors in ideal conditions, it can grow taller. Its upright growth makes it suitable for floor pots and as a tall accent plant. Growing Conditions Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Variegation is more pronounced with higher light levels. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. Water: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering in winter. Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity. Regular misting or placing the plant on a humidity tray can help maintain humidity levels. Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F). Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes. Uses Schefflera 'Madame De Smet' is perfect for: Indoor decoration in homes and offices Adding a touch of elegance and greenery to interior spaces Container gardening on patios and balconies in warmer climates Maintenance Pruning: Prune to maintain the desired shape and remove any leggy or damaged growth. Pruning encourages bushier growth. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years in spring to refresh the soil and provide more space for growth. Use a well-draining potting mix. Pests: Be vigilant for common indoor pests such as spider mites, aphids, and scale. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Notes Schefflera arboricola 'Madame De Smet' is known for its air-purifying properties, making it a beneficial addition to indoor environments. It is generally non-toxic to pets and humans but should still be kept out of reach of curious pets and children. Companion Plants Dracaena Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) Pothos Philodendron These plants share similar care requirements and can complement the Schefflera 'Madame De Smet' in creating a lush, attractive indoor garden.
