Polyscias Fabian branched - 45cm

Product description

The Polyscias Fabian Branched - 45cm is a real jungle plant that originates from Africa and Asia. Another name for the Polyscias is the Aralia. In terms of care, this houseplant requires a little more energy than others, but when you take the Polyscias Fabian into your home, a piece of the rainforest comes into your living room!

A nice fact: in Greek, 'Polyscias' means many shades. This refers to the fact that the Polyscias Fabian offers a lot of shade, because in nature this plant can grow into a huge tree. 

Care & tips Polyscias Fabian branched- 45cm

This houseplant requires a little more attention than the average houseplant. A good location is crucial for a healthy Polyscias Fabian. This houseplant is also sensitive to pests by nature. Because this houseplant wants a high humidity, the Polyscias Fabian is a good target for aphids and scale insects. These pests can be controlled with a biological or chemical pesticide. Spider mites also find the Polyscias Fabian an attractive plant, but they can be easily removed with a powerful jet of water. Be careful not to damage the leaves.

Water requirements of the Polyscias Fabian branched - 45 cm

The water requirements of the Polyscias Fabian are important for its growth and health, so watering it carefully is best. In the summer months the soil should always be moist and not dry out between waterings. We recommend you to water small amounts several times as there should not be a layer of water in the pot. You can easily check whether the soil is still moist by feeling it with your fingers. In the winter months, the soil may dry out a little between waterings before you give new water. The amount and frequency of watering also depends on the size, location and ambient temperature. So always check what the best frequency and amount is for your Polyscias Fabian. 

We also recommend that you water this houseplant regularly because the Polyscias Fabian likes a damp environment. Of course, this is not always the case in our living rooms, so it's best to give your Polyscias Fabian some help! Watering the plant will also help to prevent pests.

Light requirements Polyscias Fabian branched - 45cm

The Polyscias Fabian prefers a spot in the semi-shade. However, this houseplant does need sunlight. So do not put it in a dark place. Direct sunlight is not good for this houseplant. A few hours of indirect sunlight is sufficient for the Polyscias Fabian to branch out. This houseplant doesn't like to change places either, so don't move it too much/frequently.
