Hi Jacquie,

Your plant is an Aralia, Schefflera Elegantissima.
Here are some care tips:
Water: Too much water, resulting in root rot, is the main reason Aralia Plants die. Allow the top 50% of the soil to dry out before watering an Aralia Plant. In
low light conditions, an Aralia Plant may need water as little as every 2-3 weeks.
Fertilizer: An Aralia Plant requires very little
fertilizer. Feed an Aralia Plant every other month when it’s actively growing with a plant food high in nitrogen at 1/2 the recommended strength.
