Schefflera Amate (Schefflera actinophylla ‘Amate’), also known as the umbrella tree, is a popular indoor plant known for its glossy, large, hand-shaped leaves that fan out like the ribs of an umbrella. Native to Australia and New Guinea, the 'Amate' cultivar is a more refined version of the standard Schefflera, bred for its disease resistance and lush, vibrant foliage. It’s a striking, low-maintenance option for adding bold greenery to your home.
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light, making a north-, east-, or bright filtered south-facing window ideal. It can tolerate medium light, but avoid direct sun, which can scorch its leaves. If the plant becomes leggy or starts dropping leaves, it’s likely not getting enough light. Rotate it occasionally to maintain even growth and prevent it from leaning toward the light source.
Water your Schefflera Amate when the top few inches of soil feel dry. Be careful not to overwater—this plant prefers to dry out a bit between waterings. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot. It tolerates average indoor humidity well but will appreciate occasional misting. Keep it away from cold drafts or heat vents, and prune occasionally to encourage bushier growth and remove any dead or yellowing leaves.
