Ming Aralia variegated 6”

The Geranium Leaf Aralia is a tropical shrub admired for its uniquely shaped leaves that resemble geraniums, giving it a delicate and lacy appearance. Its vibrant green foliage adds a touch of elegance to any indoor space, and its naturally bushy growth habit makes it ideal for tabletops, shelves, or as a floor plant in larger pots. Native to Southeast Asia, this plant thrives in warm, humid conditions and is popular among collectors for its ornamental beauty and easy-going care.

For optimal growth, the Geranium Leaf Aralia prefers bright, indirect light, such as an east- or north-facing window. It can tolerate medium light conditions, but low light may cause slower growth and less vibrant foliage. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate leaves and reduce the plant’s lacy appearance. Proper light ensures bushier growth and helps maintain its bright green color.

Caring for this aralia involves keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, allowing the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings. A well-draining potting mix with added perlite works best to prevent root rot. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer to encourage fuller, healthy growth. With the right combination of light, water, and humidity, the Geranium Leaf Aralia will thrive and bring a lush, tropical feel to your home or plant collection.
