Ella
$19
Dwarf Umbrella Tree
Schefflera arboricola
Ella is the shortest of all of her Schefflera cousins, growing up to only five feet as opposed to 50. She doesn't mind an occasional dry spell, which makes sense when you remember that her leaves are basically little umbrellas.
Bright, indirect light.
Once a week, when soil is dry two inches deep.
Toxic to your best friends.
Loves an occasional spritz.
Small: ~10" tall and a 4" pot. Medium: ~16" tall and a 6" pot.
Pro-tip: If you see leaves dropping or yellowing, it means she needs more light.
