Polyscias perejil white bonsai

Polyscias perejil, also known as Aralia parsley or Ming aralia, is a tropical plant that is often grown as a houseplant. Here are some care tips:

1. Light: Polyscias perejil prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves.

2. Water: Keep the soil evenly moist, but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely or sitting in standing water.

3. Humidity: Polyscias perejil likes high humidity, so consider placing it near a humidifier or pebble tray. Mist the leaves regularly with room-temperature water.

4. Temperature: Polyscias perejil prefers temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C) and can be damaged by cold drafts.

5. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with added perlite or sand to improve drainage.

6. Fertilizer: Feed Polyscias perejil with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).

7. Pruning: Prune Polyscias perejil in spring to control its size and shape. Pinch back the tips of new growth to encourage bushier growth.
