Description

Schefflera arboricola 'Madame De Smet' is an attractive, compact, and variegated variety of the Dwarf Umbrella Tree. Known for its glossy, palmate leaves that are green with creamy-white margins, this plant adds a tropical touch to indoor and outdoor spaces. Its elegant foliage makes it a popular choice for homes and offices.

Flowers

Indoors, Schefflera arboricola 'Madame De Smet' rarely flowers. When it does bloom, it produces small, inconspicuous clusters of greenish-yellow flowers. Outdoors, it might flower more frequently under optimal conditions.

Foliage

The plant’s primary feature is its glossy, palmate leaves, which are divided into 7-9 leaflets. The leaves are dark green with creamy-white variegation along the margins, creating a striking contrast and a visually appealing pattern.

Fruit

If flowering occurs, it may produce small, round, orange or red berries. However, fruiting is uncommon indoors.

Form and Size

Schefflera 'Madame De Smet' has a compact and bushy growth habit, typically reaching a height of 1-1.5 meters (3-5 feet) indoors. When grown outdoors in ideal conditions, it can grow taller. Its upright growth makes it suitable for floor pots and as a tall accent plant.

Growing Conditions

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Variegation is more pronounced with higher light levels. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
  • Water: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.
  • Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity. Regular misting or placing the plant on a humidity tray can help maintain humidity levels.
  • Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F). Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Uses

Schefflera 'Madame De Smet' is perfect for:

  • Indoor decoration in homes and offices
  • Adding a touch of elegance and greenery to interior spaces
  • Container gardening on patios and balconies in warmer climates

Maintenance

  • Pruning: Prune to maintain the desired shape and remove any leggy or damaged growth. Pruning encourages bushier growth.
  • Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years in spring to refresh the soil and provide more space for growth. Use a well-draining potting mix.
  • Pests: Be vigilant for common indoor pests such as spider mites, aphids, and scale. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

Notes

Schefflera arboricola 'Madame De Smet' is known for its air-purifying properties, making it a beneficial addition to indoor environments. It is generally non-toxic to pets and humans but should still be kept out of reach of curious pets and children.

Companion Plants

  • Dracaena
  • Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum)
  • Pothos
  • Philodendron

These plants share similar care requirements and can complement the Schefflera 'Madame De Smet' in creating a lush, attractive indoor garden.

Enchanting, Thoughtful, Lyrical
Format: Hardcover
My Summary: The seemingly perfect Society takes care of it's people. No one suffers, no one has too much or too little, and nothing is ever left to chance. After eagerly awaiting to see who the Society matches her with, Cassia Reyes is relieved to see that it's one of her best friends, Xander. Except later on, when viewing what should be a microcard all about Xander, she sees another face where Xander's should be. Ky Markham's face. Ky, who is so unlike Xander, is not the kind of person Cassia should be with, or even notice. Yet the more she spends time with him, the more she realizes that everything she thought she knew just might be wrong. The closer they get, the more Cassia pushes the Societies limits and rules. She'll have to decide how far she'd go for true love and the ability to decide for herself, even if it means defying every rule the Society has.... Review: Matched* is a dystopian novel I'll definitely be remembering for quite some time. Narrated in the first person present tense by Cassia, her story begins at the Matching Banquet. Her personality slowly shines throughout the chapters, and the uniqueness of the "perfected" Society is revealed with wonderful pacing. Condie managed to let other characters grow as well, and I don't think there was a single character that didn't interest and intrigue me. The writing in Matched is beautiful. At times, it felt enchanting, thoughtful and lyrical. Condie's words drew me into another world that felt real, and the story that resides inside such a stunning (and fitting) cover is bound to attract readers. Matched essentially comes down to two things: love and choice. And yes, you absolutely should read this novel, especially if you enjoy thoughtful novels with a very believable romance. Highlights: Cassia's voice is completely engaging that I could spend weeks rereading this novel. Rarely do I read a novel where there is a love triangle that makes me struggle with deciding who the protagonist should end up with (just like in Andrea Cremer's debut, ). Both guys are truly different and they make sense with Cassia - that's the best thing I can ever say about a love triangle. This novel pulled at my heartstrings, and kept me eager for more with every word. Lowlights: There are just a few moments where the pacing slows, but I think that's where the magic of this story lies. It slows, keeping you captivated with every word, and picks up again. *Received a copy in exchange for my honest review
