Schefflera Arboricola
The Arboricola, also called the Dwarf Schefflera or Umbrella Tree due to the shape of the leaves. This lush hardy shrub is a common foundation plant often pruned to use as a hedge. The shrub is moderately salt-tolerant and very drought-tolerant with glossy green leaves that fan out in a rounded crown. This shrub may grow to 10 feet tall but is often pruned back to showcase the foliage. These shrubs grow in a mounded shape and will make a wonderful accent plant, privacy plants, or hedges.
