About Aralia Ming

History

Once popular and common indoor plants, Aralia Ming houseplants were hard to get hold off for a time because of relatively poor quality of nursery stock that led to a lack of demand. Now increasingly popular as high quality indoor plants, the Aralia Ming is back in cultivation.

Cultivation

The Aralia Ming houseplant is part of the Polyscias genus which contains over 100 species. The Aralia in the name is because it is part of the Araliaceae family, which also includes Ivy and Ginseng.

Care

The Aralia "Ming" or Polyscias Ming indoor plant loves warmth, humidity and light shade. It would best be suited next to a north-facing window.
