Characteristics

False Aralia is an upright shrub with long, slender leaves and deeply lobed with sawtooth edges. The leaves are a glossy dark green color, with new growth emerging in a coppery or burgundy hue. False aralia is a relatively easy-to-care-for houseplant. It thrives in moderate temperatures and humidity. With proper care, it can live for many years.

How to Care for False Aralia

  • Light: Thrives in bright indirect light and cannot tolerate direct light.
  • Water Preferences: Allow the soil to dry out slightly in between watering. Water approximately every 7-10 days depending on what kind of light the plant receives.
  • Special Care/Notes: Prefers loose, well-draining soil that can hold moisture well.

"No matter what I am at Bath for, there are always helpful employees to help me find what I need or tips on how to care for indoor or outdoor plants. They also carry pots, trellises, soil, and interesting plants of all kinds! I was also pleasantly surprised to find compost worms available for purchase without a special preorder. Thank you for being awesome!"
