Polyscias are versatile, small, indoor, branching trees. They grow in an upright and compact manner, making them suitable even in smaller spaces. Polyscias translates from the Greek as “many” and “shade”, a reference to their abundant foliage.
Polyscias Roble has small green-brown leaves that grow along the full length of the branches, creating a mass of tropical green tranquillity for your home.
Polyscias Roble – Aralia Roble Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Away with the wilt! Wilted stems and shrivelled leaves are often a sign that there are pests involved. Check the affected areas thoroughly and treat accordingly. See our pests page for help.
Prune to maintain shape and develop thicker trunks. Pinch out leaves to encourage branching.
Lower leaves can drop in the colder seasons. This is natural and has the added benefit of revealing more of the attractive trunk feature.
Light
Polyscias Roble prefers moderate to bright, indirect light but can also adapt to shade. Avoid direct sunlight as this may scorch the plant.
