It’s hard to think of a more elegant indoor plant. Ming aralias are graceful, bushy upright plants covered with lacy, bright-green foliage. There are several varieties of Ming aralia available and their ultimate size can vary from 2 to 4 feet.

Ming aralia prefer a warm room and will suffer if the temperature drops below 65º. They also require high humidity and need high light. Placing the plants on a humidity tray can provide extra humidity.

Ming aralias should be thoroughly watered and then allowed to dry slightly before they are watered again.
