- I bring my dwarf Schefflera (Schefflera arboricola) to the greenhouse for the first work since fall. In this series, I'll be defoliating the tree and pruning it up!

Beautiful Dwarf Schefflera Sir. The Long time process.
Good job Sir.
I've just noticed there's a snake in your Schefflera! :-D
Finaly a Schefflera video! Happy to see her in all her splender!
Yes I love this tree
Great tutorial on this Dwarf Schefflera with a nice explanation. Cool! Cherries. Nice tour of your updates. Baobabs looking nice. Mine. Still asleep. Would an 0-2-1 fertilizer work better for the desert rose for you? No nitrogen for growth. Just for flowering. You can always give it nitrogen fertilizer every 5th time you fertilize. Just a thought.
Such an interesting tree! I got my Schefflera because of this tree. Unfortunately, it doesn't like me. I've had is about 4 years now and it is still a stick. Only grows outdoors. So I will just enjoys yours!
This has always been one of my favorite plantings Nigel! Can't wait to see what direction you decide to take with it in the next video!
Thank you so much!

Thanks Lisa, me too!!
It's my favorite too ❤
We got a small schefflera as part of a planted group after my MIL died some 15 years ago. My husband has kept all of the plants alive since, and some of them have become monsters. The schefflera grew to about 8 feet tall in our hallway and had to be supported by being "staked" to the staircase. He finally cut the plant back to about 3 feet tall, and the schefflera has responded by putting out lots of healthy growth.
Nice Beth!
This is one of my favorite plantings of yours, Nigel. Between this and your Lemon is what pretty much got me into the hobby. Always a treat to see it featured. Thank you!
You seem to have an Ever Ready Chinese elm that, like ‘The Bunny’, just keeps growing and growing and🌿🌿🌿…🥁🐇🥁🐇🌿🌿🌿. Good one.
Your Brazilian rain tree looks fantastic. Have you given any thought to showing it as specimen tree next year in the Spring Show? I think it’s beautiful. Thanks for the updates.
One of my favorites which inspired me to create my own clump five years ago. I’m really looking forward to watching this series. Just brought it out last week. I did my defoliation and pruning last summer. It’s finally going into a nice pot this summer. Thanks, keep growing
I'm curious if that's the baby Robin you used to spoon feed long ago.
If so...That's really cool!
👍👌👌
It's schefflera Thursday. ❤️❤️. I had to do the bonsai and succulent shuffle last night too. We covered the vegetable garden with blankets and towels. It was 28 degrees F here this morning in Connecticut. Everything seems to have survived last night's frost.
Nice work, hopefully it warms up now....finally!!
Hello Nigel, Are you ever considering installing that large greenhouse that you purchased and dismantled.
I see that the post are still in. I think those were meant for the greenhouse.
Great video as always.
Yes
The tree looks amazing. I can't wait to see what you do with the roots and canopy in vidio 2. I think it would look cool with split Arial roots and the multiple canopy.
My ficuses always seem to do fine with the outdoor transition. The Pachira Aquatica, not so much.
I hear people all the time talking about how much of a menice red spider is. To me there is no pest worse to deal with than scale. They are nearly impossible to kill and can weaken a plant faster than just about any other pest.
Nigel, your hair starts to attract birds! 😅
Lol, good nesting material!!
hey nigel, how do you get that sedum behind your aloe so green? I have some but they are yellowish
Hi Nigel i have a query...how often should we fertilize the schefflera bonsai during the growing season?
Been watching for a long time I have a schefflea I need some advice on! Do you have an email I can send you pictures for help! I appreciate your videos and inspiration, starting a dwarf spruce forest with an old pickup in the spring!
Congratulations Nigel 200K subscribers. I've been watching your videos for a long time and learning more and more. Thank you so much for your work. I have a Chinese Elm that will be 37 years old this year. I have never wired it, only ever pruned it back. Just like you are doing. I would like to give you this tree if you are interested. I also have 3 baobabs that I sowed 7 years ago. Maybe you create a small forest with your baobabs together.... I would need then only your postal address, which you could send me gladly over my E-Mail. I SEND YOU THIS TO YOUR E-MAIL Many greetings from Germany ...
😊
