Aralia Bianca

Aralia 'Bianca' is a striking indoor plant known for its finely divided, lacy green-and-white variegated foliage and upright, tree-like form. Native to tropical Asia and the Pacific Islands, it brings a soft, airy texture to indoor spaces and thrives with consistent care. Its bushy, sculptural growth makes it a favorite for adding height and elegance to plant collections.

Pet Safe 

No, these plants are toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep it out of reach of curious animals and children.

Light 

This plant prefers bright, indirect light, but it can tolerate lower light conditions. Too much direct sun may scorch the delicate variegated leaves, while too little light can cause leaf drop or fading color. A north or east-facing window is ideal, or place it near a filtered bright window.

Water Requirements

Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feels dry, typically every 1–2 weeks. Aralia prefers even moisture, so avoid letting the soil completely dry out, but don’t keep it soggy. It appreciates moderate humidity, especially in drier indoor environments.

Watch out for… 

Sudden leaf drop can occur from drafts, inconsistent watering, or low humidity. Aralias are sensitive to environmental changes, so try to keep their conditions steady. Spider mites and aphids can sometimes be a problem, so keep an eye on the undersides of leaves.
