Polyscias Fabian

Polyscias 'Fabian' (Polyscias scutellaria 'Fabian')

This unusual and elegant Polyscias 'Fabian' is a wonderful houseplant that, with its massive, tree-like trunk and large, round, dark green leaves (often adorned with purplish tones underneath), resembles a refined miniature bonsai tree. It will bring a distinct atmosphere of peace, harmony, and "zen" to your home's interior. It is a very architectural and valuable gift for anyone who loves nature and minimalism and wants to enhance their space with an aesthetic and sculptural green accent.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

• ☀️ Light: Bright, diffused light or partial shade. Protect from direct, scorching sunlight. Important: Polyscias have a quite distinct "character" – they strongly dislike being moved or rotated frequently. It’s best to find one stable, draft-free spot for the plant and let it grow there peacefully.

• 💧 Watering: Moderate and careful. Keep the soil lightly moist but allow the top layer to dry out slightly between waterings. The plant does not tolerate prolonged sogginess and often reacts to overwatering (as well as drying out) with rapid leaf drop.

• 🌡️ Temperature/Humidity: Loves warmth and high air humidity. The plant vitally needs a humidifier or regular misting. Strictly protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes (especially during winter ventilation)!

• 🐾 Pets: Not pet-friendly. The plant is toxic to cats and dogs if ingested (contains saponins), so place it out of reach of your pets.

🏠 BEST ROOM:

• Bright and cozy living room (as a highly noticeable and calming design element).

• Office desk or shelf (will bring natural harmony to the work environment and help reduce daily stress).

• Bathroom with a window (the plant will enjoy and greatly appreciate the natural warmth and humidity there).

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Height: 30 cm

• Pot diameter: 12 cm

⚠️ Note: Plants are living organisms, so each specimen may differ slightly from the picture. Please note that after transport or environmental changes, the polyscias may drop several leaves – this is a natural acclimation process due to its sensitive nature. Give it time to adjust!
