Schefflera delavayi is a rarely offered, tropical and exotic looking small tree from Southern China, with papery to leathery, composed leaves made up of usually 5 to 7 leaflets, each with its own stalk - a very elegant feature. It can grow into a small tree with a few m tall trunk but for years, it looks like a shrub. Flowers are of creamy colour in large racemes, followed by small black berries, both highly ornamental. One of the hardiest of the genus, down to -8C.
- We have one year old, 5-10cm tall plants on offer.
