Umbrella trees (Schefflera actinophylla) are popular, low-maintenance houseplants known for their glossy, palmately compound leaves that radiate outward from a central point, giving the plant its characteristic umbrella-like appearance. Follow these care instructions to keep your umbrella tree healthy and thriving:

  1. Light: Place your umbrella tree in a location with bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but the growth may become leggy. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves and cause them to turn yellow.

  2. Water: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Water your umbrella tree thoroughly until it drains from the bottom of the pot, and then allow the excess water to drain completely. Be cautious not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.

  3. Humidity: Umbrella trees can tolerate average indoor humidity levels but will appreciate a boost in humidity, especially during dry winter months. To increase humidity, you can place a tray filled with water and pebbles underneath the pot, mist the leaves occasionally, or use a humidifier.

  4. Temperature: Maintain a temperature range of 60-75°F (15-24°C) for optimal growth. Umbrella trees can tolerate a range of temperatures but avoid exposing them to temperatures below 55°F (13°C) or sudden temperature changes.

  5. Fertilizer: Feed your umbrella tree with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Use a half-strength solution to avoid over-fertilizing. Reduce feeding to once every 2-3 months during fall and winter.

  6. Pruning: Prune your umbrella tree as needed to maintain its shape and size. Remove any yellow or brown leaves and trim the tips if they become damaged. You can also pinch back the growing tips to encourage bushier growth.

  7. Repotting: Repot your umbrella tree every 2-3 years or when the roots outgrow the pot. Choose a well-draining potting mix and a pot that is 1-2 inches larger in diameter than the current one. Be gentle when handling the roots, and water the plant thoroughly after repotting.

  8. Pest control: Keep an eye out for common pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects. Treat any infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil, following the manufacturer's instructions.

Pet-friendly or toxic to pets?

According to the ASPCA, umbrella trees (Schefflera actinophylla) are toxic to cats and dogs. If ingested, they can cause symptoms such as vomiting, excessive drooling, and difficulty swallowing due to the presence of calcium oxalate crystals. It's best to keep your umbrella tree out of reach of pets to prevent any potential health issues. If you suspect your pet has ingested any part of the plant, contact your veterinarian immediately.

Works OK.
Material Type: Powder Ox, Size: 16 oz
With a lot of work and diligence (elbow grease), the product works at removing oxidation. I expected it to easily remove the old Poliglow as well. Still lots of work. It will NOT remove the brown water stains from the roof of my molded fiberglass camper. Product is OK, but does not work as easily as advertised.

It's extremely difficult and when it hasn't been maintained it looks like skin peeling after a sun burn

Poli-glow definitely works. The negative feedback is generally due to someone trying to remove poli-glow. It's extremely difficult and when it hasn't been maintained it looks like skin peeling after a sun burn. I purchased a 41' sailboat with poli-glow. The poli glow was flaking off and had to be removed. It wasn't fun. In the end, I bought poli-strip and used an orbital sander and wet sanded thru it. Then I used poli-strip, then poli-prep and washed it down. From there I used poli-ox and poli-prep one more time...I basically used poli-prep along with lots of water to wash boat down. The poli-ox when used thick, like a paste, ate through most stains once poli-glow was removed. It took two-three days of prep. Application took half day per side. I used two kits. Also bought the rectangular special applicator (far better than their mitt). Make sure to have lots of disposable gloves. I don't think the chemicals will harm your hands much...I didn't have gloves for much of the prep work, but gloves are a must when applying poli-glow. Othnerwise your hand get very gunked up.

Very expensive but worked no better than powdered cleansers
Material Type: Powder Ox, Size: 16 oz
My camper is a 2004 with oxidized paint and dark streaks from being out in the weather. I looked at reviews and there is a lot of hype about this product so I ordered some. I used this on an area of my camper to test it in case it didn't work and guess what...it didn't. It didn't remove the oxidation and black streaking any better than Ajax powder. In one place, when I used it as directed, it wore the paint down to the bare metal and didn't remove dark streaking in the surrounding area. The area I tested it on looked cleaner, but no better than the area I used Ajax powder on the day before. Very expensive for what it didn't do. I do not recommend this product.

Works great
Be careful NOT to get it on painted surfaces it will remove the paint. It does exactly what they say it does and if you follow the directions to the letter you won't have any problems
