How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water your schefflera thoroughly when the top 75% of soil is dry. Allow the water to run out of the drainage hole in the bottom of the pot, discarding any water that flows into the saucer; your schefflera is a very hardy plant and doesn't mind if you occasionally wait too long between waterings.
Pruning
Never remove more than a third of the foliage in any one year and to cut just above a node on the stem.
Fertilizer
Mix the recommended amount of liquid fertilizer and water in a watering can. Then simply pour the mix into the soil as if you're watering the plant.
