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.

A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR THE 1st YEAR PHARMACOLOGY STUDENT !
Format: Kindle
Been working at CVS Pharmacy for 3 months now. I am looking to take the PTCE Exam in 5 months. I downloaded the Top 200 drugs from the net and start memorizing it. After 20 words....the material was getting harder to absorb. Yes, I was relying on pure memorization. According to Dr Guerra, this ain't the correct approach.Then I came upon this book from Tony Guerra. Dr Guerra is right in that to memorize these 200 drug names, the data must be meaningful. The book has help tremendously. It approaches the study from a Physiology and Class point of view. I don't now how others are benefiting from this book. I bought both the audio and the ebook on kindle. This way, I can pronounce the drug names and know how to spell both the generic and brand name. The real question is why this book and not some other Top 200 drugs from the other authors. I have seen the other books at Barnes and Noble. The other authors throw everything at you. It assume you already know some pharmacology before starting learning pharmacology. This book is indeed a relaxed approach. This book is the front door to learning the Top 200 Drugs and it is written in a layman's language in such a way that everyone can comprehend it. I highly recommend this book. A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR THE 1st YEAR PHARMACOLOGY STUDENT!!!!! P.S. Just finished Chapter 1 and 2. Entering Chapter 3. The retention is going according to plan. Alex Ung

You will ace your pharmacology courses!! -- A MUST HAVE
Format: Paperback
I only watched one YouTube video of Dr. Guerra's and immediately purchased the book right after. As a pharmacy student I am always coming up with mnemonics to help me understand material quickly. I do this so when I look at any word I can quickly access loads of information about it just merely looking at the word itself. However, I don't have time for that due to heavy course load of pharmacology, therapeutics, and medchem. Luckily, Dr. Guerra and his students did the work for me! It truly helped me not just memorize but understand the drugs and make the connections quickly. It really is learning a new language but it's put in much simpler terms that a high schooler can understand. Watch his videos on YouTube to see for yourself or a snippet of the book on Google. This book is so cheap compared to the $200+ undergrad books you had to buy to get to where you are right now. I mean come on, I've spent more money on fastfood than this book. If you are struggling in pharmacology, this book is your lifesaver.

Nursing Student Must Have
Format: Audiobook
I feel that this book helped to break down all the different types of drugs in an easy-to-read fashion. As a nursing student, it is largely beneficial to be able to know the "drug group" from the drug name, because you are then able to make connections to what it does. I enjoyed reading this book and that it is full of tips to help memorize generic and trade names!

I bought this book. This review is based on one full day of analyzing the material presented. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting a tool to recall drugs by classification, name, and mnemonics. I outlined the author's note and feel these are full-circle critical points that he makes: The book assembles an easy to understand basis of drugs to be utilized for class, exams, and medical practice to the student that wants to be remarkable. Also, transforming the language of pharmacology into plain understood English is a realistic goal that this book is helping me with. The author's analogies and mnemonics shared greatly enhance the learning experience. I also highly appreciated the content in the author's note about taking the memorization a step further to comprehension to describe a drug treatment regimen. I have implemented the strategies within and have found positive results so far! Thank you for such a wonderful book!

Started off great, but kind of went left.
Format: Kindle
I liked the first few chapters. The introduction of the book have an INCREDIBLE acronym to remember the drug classes. I liked him pointing out stems because they are very helpful, BUT some of the hints and connections could've been better. Also, the book doesn't help memorize the brand/generic name. It only helps remember what drugs go into which drug classes which could be done simply just from knowing your stems. So you're right back at square one trying to remember the brsnd/generic name like you were in the first place.
