Love it, but have no clue what this houseplant is.

I picked up this plant at a grocery store a few years ago. I love it, but have never been able to find out what it is. Thanks!

Hi Anna,

ark green, serrated Schefflera elegantissima

Schefflera elegantissima

Okay, this is really a little confusing. The plant is called a False Aralia but is not related to the Ming Aralia (Polyscias fruticosa) even though it looks quite a bit like it. The scientific name of the plant is Schefflera elegantissima, making it a relative of Schefflera plants.
