The Schefflera 'Moonlight' is a striking variegated cultivar of the Schefflera arboricola, commonly known as the dwarf umbrella tree. Native to Taiwan, this compact evergreen houseplant offers a sophisticated alternative to its larger cousin, the Schefflera actinophylla, making it perfect for indoor spaces.
Distinctive Variegated Foliage
This particular variety showcases beautiful variegation with splashes of washed-out yellow across its oblong leaves. The foliage grows in a distinctive circular arrangement at the end of very slender stalks, creating the characteristic umbrella-like appearance that gives this plant its common name. Each leaf cluster forms a natural canopy, adding architectural interest to any room.
Plant Specifications
