For no fuss or mess you can place the plant in its growing pot (the pot it arrives in) inside a decorative one. This allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.

For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot. Here is how we measure and list pot sizes:

Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in a rounded pot.

We recommend using a liner to protect your decorative pot and prevent leaking (whether placing the nursery pot inside or repotting directly into the decorative pot).

Top Tip

Overwatering is the biggest killer so if you see yellow leaves or leaf drop the roots may be too sodden.

Schefflera Arboricola 'Compacta'

Umbrella Tree

This umbrella plant has large glossy green leaves. As a natural air freshener and detoxifier, they make a health conscious addition to the home.

As 'Compacta' is a cultivar with less variegated leaves it can handle lower light levels.
