This plant sports round, dark green leaves in a compact, bushy shape atop its stout trunk. Bringing part of the forest inside, the stunning shape of the leaves is what makes this plant stand out! It is more tolerant of underwatering than overwatering, and can cope with shade (with less water) and will love indirect light. Pick a nice, bright spot with preferably high humidity and your plant will reward you with stunningly-shaped leaves. **Scientific Name** Polyscias scutellaria 'Fabian' (many-shaded plant with calyxes like small platters, variety: Fabian) **Common Name** Shield Aralia, Plum Aralia, Dinner Plate Aralia, Aralia Fabian **Origin** Native to the Pacific Islands **Light** Your Aralia will prefer bright, indirect light, but can adapt to a shadier spot. Avoid direct sun which can scorch your Aralia plant. **Water** Allow the top couple of inches of soil to dry out between waters; the Aralia prefers being underwatered to overwatered so it's better to leave it an extra few days
