Tupidanthus calyptratus - 18cm pot potting mix The new growth starts outThis delightful tree is closely related to our favourite native Schefflera (the Tupidanthus has the syn. of Schefflera pueckleri), however this Umbrella Tree hails from Myanmar and India and likes a brighter position than its lower light tolerant cousins. A fast growing plant that will reward you with minimal fuss. It cuts a striking figure against white walls where it can cast a graceful shadow in the morning sun. Available in 18cm plastic nursery
