- Ships Nationwide

Sprout a unique addition to your indoor garden with these schefflera arboricola, aka dwarf umbrella plant, seeds.

Instructions:

These seeds grow slowly, so we recommend using the following to sow the seeds: 

Store these seeds in a cool, dry place if not planting right away. It is recommend to plant them right away, the longer they are stored, the lower the germination rates will be.

Schefflera seeds are some of the most difficult houseplant seeds to germinate, so you'll want to either

1. soak the seeds for ~24 hours and then plant in a very humid greenhouse ideally with a heat mat and grow light

2. (our favorite method) start off the seeds with the paper towel method, keeping the paper towel consistently moist and warm. Once the seeds germinate, plant them gently in some potting mix with a dome and once the seedlings acclimate, remove the dome and keep them brightly lit(no direct sun)

(Find more info on germinating seeds by going to our seed guide)

These seeds are for the 2026 growing season.
