Queensland Umbrella Tree Schefflera actinophylla
Our Southland climate is so hospitable that not only do we attract people from all over the world, our plant inventory is equally all encompassing. Inhabitants of cold climates feel as much at home here in our outdoors as denizens of tropical jungles that might be tenderly cared for as houseplants elsewhere in the world. The Schefflera is a good example. It is native to the tropical rain forests of northern Queensland, Australia; New Guinea; and Java, Indonesia, but it thrives here, both as a potted plant and as an outdoor tree. Much as we may want to give our native California plants a larger role in future plantings, we will have existing imports around for a long time.
The Queensland Umbrella tree is a fast-growing, exotically tropical plant that may reach 20 to 40 feet tall and wide. Strictly speaking it is not a tree since it does not produce wood. Multiple trunks are usually rather thin, smooth, light gray and unbranched. Shape of foliage gives rise to the umbrella name: The long-stalked leaves are divided in multiple (7-16), glossy, green, elliptical leaflets, each up to 12 inches long, radiating out and down like ribs of an umbrella
