A good selection of plants and just what I was looking for. They were despatched quickly but due to a problem with the courier I had to wait longer than expected for them. That was disappointing. Overall customer service was good. More care needs to be taken by the courier service as when the plants did arrive the box was on its side at the back of the van.

Four really well packed large plants arrived in one box with only one leaf lost! The order was a bit delayed but only because they were awaiting better quality stock. Good prices too considering other online plant companies.

I purchased a Lucky Bamboo plant and when it arrived the plant was in absolutely great condition. Even better than I had originally anticipated. However, the pot the plant came in was broken despite the protective package. It's most probable that the pot was broken whilst in transit.Upon contacting Customer Services, the representative was friendly, efficient and prompt in resolving the issue.Therefore, I will definitely be making further purchases and would highly recommend Oxy - Plants.

How To Care For Umbrella Plant

When you do water, make sure you thoroughly soak the soil. Let the soil in your pot dry out between watering. Make sure you don’t over-water your Umbrella Plant as this will kill your beloved house plant. A tell-tale sign of this is if the leaves start to turn yellow. If you don’t have anything to water with, why not try our BRAND NEW watering cans?

Umbrella Plants like to be kept in bright, indirect sunlight. A common problem is that they may lose leaves and wilt rapidly- this is often caused by too little light. Offer them a position with a splash of morning sun and avoid them being exposed to for more than three hours of direct sunlight

You shouldn’t need to mist your Schefflera too regularly, but all plants like a bit of a pampering every now and again.  If you have nothing to mist with, we have the perfect solution! Try our water mister.

Umbrella Plants like a well-draining, loose potting mixture.

The Umbrella Plant doesn’t really need fertilizing, but you can give them a feed once a year if you wish. Something like our Miracle-Gro All Purpose Pump and Feed would be perfect as this will ensure your umbrella plant has strong roots, stems and a bright bushy foliage at the same time!

If using fertiliser is new to you, read our “How to Fertilise Your Houseplant” page!

Although rare, the Umbrella Plant may become susceptible to aphids, scales, and mealybugs. If this becomes a problem, simply treat it with some of our neem oil!

If you think your plant is suffering from a pest or disease, take a look at our Pests and Infections page!

You should look to repot your Umbrella Plant about once a year. You can tell when it’s time to repot when the roots are root-bound! Have a look at our extensive range of stone plant pots and pick which one you find nicest!

Wondering how to repot your houseplant? Take a look at our repotting guide. It has all the information you’ll need!

Care for your Umbrella Plant with these

About Umbrella Plant

Schefflera, commonly known as the Umbrella Plant, is easily recognizable because of its distinctive oval leaves. They are popular for their compact nature and ease of care. Their ideal environment is warm and evenly moist with bright, indirect light making Schefflera the perfect plant in a bright corner or by a window.

The Origins of the Umbrella Plant

The Umbrella Plant originated in Australia but is now able to grow all around the world in tropical, temperate regions! The plant is well known for its symbolic meaning – the leaf fingers are said to capture positive energy and attract wealth for those who own and care for them.

Care Tips for your Umbrella Plant:

  • Watering – keep your Umbrella Plant’s soil moist but not wet.
  • Warmth – Don’t let your umbrella plant get too cold.
  • Light – Give your Umbrella Plant as much light as possible (without scorching it).
  • Pruning – If your umbrella plant is suffering and has become a little ‘floppy’ due to not having enough light, it might be time to give your indoor plant a bit of a haircut. Simply cut away a few excess leaves and your Schefflera should bounce back even fuller.

Read our full care guide below for all the best advice on how to care for your umbrella plant.
