6 Schefflera Trinette

The brighter the light, the faster and fuller a Hawaiian Schefflera plant grows. Variegated Hawaiian Scheffleras like the Trinette require more light than solid green Hawaiian scheffleras. Direct sun burns the leaves of all types of schefflera plants.

Water well and then allow the top 1/3 of the soil to dry out before watering again. This might be an inch or two in a small pot and 5″ or more in a large pot. Green and white leaves fall off and new growth turns brown/black when a Hawaiian Schefflera is over- watered. Leaves turn bright yellow when it is under-watered.

Fertilize monthly in the spring and summer with a balanced plant food diluted to 1/2 the recommended strength. Avoid feeding schefflera plants when they are not actively growing.
