Description

Overview:
A striking braided-stem indoor tree topped with lush, glossy umbrella-shaped foliage, bringing real height and presence to a room. Pot size shown refers to diameter, not plant height.

Plants supplied in a growers pot, decorative pot not included.

Key Features & Care:

• 
  
  Light / Position: Thrives in bright, indirect light and tolerates lower light reasonably well, though variegation and growth will be strongest closer to a window


• 
  
  Water / Feed: Allow the top few centimetres of compost to dry out before watering thoroughly; cut right back in winter, when it needs very little


• 
  
  Temperature / Humidity: Prefers normal room temperatures, ideally staying above 12°C; benefits from an occasional misting if the air is particularly dry


• 
  
  Pet / Child Friendly: Mildly toxic if chewed or ingested, so best kept away from curious pets and small children


• 
  
  Air purifying: Recognised for helping remove common airborne toxins such as formaldehyde


• 
  
  Growth / Spread: A steady grower; as an indoor tree it typically reaches around 1.5–2m in height over time, though can be pruned to control size


• 
  
  Geographic Origins: Native to Taiwan and southern China

Care tips:
The braided trunk is formed while the stems are young and pliable, so it’s worth rotating the pot every so often to keep growth even on all sides. It’s a genuinely forgiving plant that copes well with a bit of neglect, making it a strong choice for a statement piece that doesn’t demand constant attention.

Why you’ll love it:
A bold, architectural centrepiece that fills a corner with real height and character.
