Question
plant
Hi Darlene Here is a picture of a house plant i bought. It didnt have a name on the tag. Could you help me identify it? It has several long main stems and the leaves are shaped like a 7-9 pointed star .in a joking manner it does resemble a pot plant? lol.
AnswerJamey,
Your plant is a yellow flower one is a Dizygotheca elegantissima or commonly known as False Aralia. It can become as tall as 20 feet tall if planted in the ground or a huge pot but is a slow grower. The following website gives very detailed growing instructions: http://www.backyardgardener.com/plantname/pda_43e0.html
The plant does hate drafts or overwatering. Do not leave it sitting with excess water in it's drain tray. I also do not advise smoking it. If you have any specific questions after you have read that website feel free to write again. Good luck.
