Description
Black Aralia forms crooked trunks and interesting shapes. It is great material for containers or as a Bonsai tree. The curly dimpled leaves are super unique and remind me of kale!
We grow them outside at our nursery in south Florida but they can also be kept indoors with good conditions. We prefer to grow them in bright shade but they can also adopt to direct sun. They require average water, occasional fertilizer and trimming. They like to be kept warm. They can drop their leaves if exposed to temperatures below 50 F.
