🌿 Schefflera actinophylla ‘Amate’ — Umbrella Tree ‘Amate’

Schefflera actinophylla ‘Amate’, commonly known as the Umbrella Tree ‘Amate’, is a bold and glossy indoor tree prized for its tropical aesthetic, fast growth, and ease of care. Native to the rainforests of Australia and New Guinea, this variety of Schefflera actinophylla has been specially selected for its larger, broader leaves and vigorous, upright habit. The plant’s name comes from its distinctive umbrella-like leaf arrangement — each long stem holds a cluster of broad, shiny green leaflets that radiate outward like spokes. The 'Amate' cultivar boasts deeper green, more lustrous foliage than the standard species, with a naturally tidy and symmetrical growth habit. It makes an excellent choice for bright interiors, atriums, and conservatories, where it quickly becomes a lush, tree-like feature plant. While relatively low-maintenance, it thrives best with consistent conditions and is well-suited to homes and offices alike.


☀️ Light Requirements

  • Indoors: Prefers bright, indirect light for best growth. Can tolerate some gentle morning sun.

  • Too much sun: Strong, direct sunlight may scorch the leaves.

  • Too little light: Leads to leggy growth, leaf drop, and reduced vibrancy.


🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Ideal temperature: 18–27°C (65–80°F)

  • Minimum temperature: Keep above 12°C (54°F); protect from cold draughts.

  • Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity but prefers moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally in dry environments.


💧 Watering Needs

  • Watering frequency: Allow the top 3–5 cm of soil to dry out between waterings.

  • Tip: Water thoroughly and allow excess to drain away. Do not let the plant sit in water.

  • Winter: Reduce watering frequency slightly when growth slows.


🪴 Soil & Repotting

  • Soil type: Well-draining potting compost, such as a general-purpose mix with added perlite or bark.

  • pH: Slightly acidic to neutral (6.0–7.0)

  • Repotting: Every 2–3 years or when rootbound. Use a sturdy pot to support its upright growth.


🌱 Feeding

  • Growing season (spring–summer): Feed every 4–6 weeks with a balanced liquid houseplant fertiliser.

  • Autumn–winter: Feeding can be reduced or paused depending on growth.


✂️ Pruning & Maintenance

  • Pruning: Trim to maintain shape and encourage branching. Pinch out tips if a bushier form is desired.

  • Leaf care: Wipe leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them glossy.

  • Height control: Regular pruning helps prevent the plant from becoming too tall or top-heavy indoors.


🌾 Propagation

  • Stem cuttings: Can be propagated from healthy stem cuttings placed in water or moist compost.

  • Air layering: An effective option for larger, mature plants.


🐛 Pests & Problems

  • Common pests: Spider mites, aphids, mealybugs, and scale insects.

  • Symptoms: Sticky residue, curled leaves, or discolouration may indicate infestation.

  • Treatment: Treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Increase humidity and airflow to discourage pests.

  • Common issues:

    • Leaf drop: Often caused by changes in light, draughts, or overwatering.

    • Brown tips: Usually due to low humidity or inconsistent watering.


🧤 Toxicity & Safety

  • Toxicity: Mildly toxic to cats, dogs, and humans if ingested. Can cause mouth irritation and digestive upset.

  • Precaution: Keep out of reach of pets and children.


🏡 Indoor Care Highlights

  • A fast-growing statement plant perfect for bright living rooms, offices, and conservatories.

  • Adds height and volume to plant displays — ideal for corners or as a backdrop.

  • Combines beautifully with other tropical foliage like Monstera, Philodendron, and Ficus species.

  • Adaptable and resilient — perfect for plant lovers seeking low-fuss greenery with big impact.

Replaced wedding band after 43 years
Gem Type: No Gemstone, Ring Size: 10
I am thrilled with this ring. After 43 years, due to arthritis and aging my knuckles were too swollen for my original band. This is a very pretty, sturdy, detailed ring. I have received many compliments and I am well pleased with the quality. It was also on time, well packaged and a notice was sent of it's arrival. Very nice. Highly recommend.

Not a ring you want to do hard dirty work in. Worth taking care of
Gem Type: No Gemstone, Ring Size: 8
I had mixed feelings when I got it. It is very lite weight. Next to my other gold jewelry it looked like a different color. It is 18k tho and my others are 14k.$300. To me ain't cheap. I have wanted this ring for along time. I started to send it back. Hubby talked me into keeping it. I got a size 8 so I could wear it on my thumb or middle finger. I have arthritis in my hands so rings fitting is a challenge. Some days I can wear them, others I can't. This ring is beautiful and being lite weight is a plus when your fingers hurt. So glad I kept it.

Order one size up
Gem Type: No Gemstone, Ring Size: 8
This is a beautiful ring. I would suggest ordering one six up from your normal ring size because it is a wide band. I had bought the bracelet a year ago and wore it everyday never took it off and the links slowly started breaking and separating to the point I just traded it in for the Wright of the gold. I hope it does not happen with this ring. I think it’s made with hollow gold and it is soft. It is a very light but comfortable band. I don’t always like to wear my diamond ring because I don’t want to loose any stones. This is good for casual everyday wear.
