Aralia is a genus of ornamental plants known for their large, glossy leaves and unique architectural form. They are typically grown as indoor houseplants or in sheltered outdoor locations. Aralias prefer bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. Regular watering is necessary to keep the soil evenly moist, but they should not be overwatered.
Fatsia japonica, also known as Japanese aralia, is a popular species within the Aralia genus. It features large, palmate leaves and produces clusters of small white flowers in late autumn. Fatsia japonica is adaptable and can thrive in both shade and partial sun. It requires regular watering and benefits from occasional fertilization to promote healthy growth. Can reach 1mt tall if allowed to reach maximum height.
