Fabian Japanese Ming Aralia Tree – Polyscias – Indoor – 6″ Pot – Thick Trunk

A Fabian aralia (Polyscias scutellaria) is a tropical plant that is usually grown as an indoor, upright, columnar, container plant and reaches 3 to 4 feet tall. Fabian aralia’s trunk is woody, like a shrub’s trunk, and the plant has colorful leaves that are green on top and purple or maroon on the underside. It is hardy outdoors all year in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 10 through 11 and needs sun to partial shade.

Temperature and Light
An indoor Fabian aralia grows best in a warm and sunny location near a window. The best place in your home to place the plant is near a south, east or west window that provides about one-half day of sunshine directly on the plant. Other options include a heated sun room or greenhouse that is at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Lower temperatures can cause leaf drop and defoliate the plant. Keep evenly moist not wet or dry. Do not overwater or allow the plant to stand in water.
