Greenery & Planters

Schefflera (Umbrella Plant) is a tropical evergreen known for its glossy, palmate leaves that resemble an umbrella. It thrives in bright, indirect light, requires moderate watering, and is popular as an easy-to-care-for houseplant. Common species include Schefflera arboricola (Dwarf Umbrella Tree) and Schefflera actinophylla (Umbrella Tree). It also helps purify indoor air.

The Ravenala palm (Ravenala madagascariensis), also known as the Traveler’s Tree, is a tropical plant native to Madagascar. Despite its name, it is not a true palm but belongs to the bird-of-paradise family (Strelitziaceae). It features large, paddle-shaped leaves that fan out in a distinctive symmetrical pattern. The plant can grow up to 10–20 meters tall and produces white flowers resembling those of banana plants. It is called the Traveler’s Tree because rainwater collects at the base of its leaf sheaths, which travelers historically used as a water source. It thrives in warm, humid climates and is often used as an ornamental plant in landscaping.
