Schefflera 'Green Goblin'

Schefflera 'Green Goblin' adds distinctive interest to NZ planting. The foliage is mid green, glossy, and comprises multiple, large leaflets in a fan arrangement. Flowers in spring are produced along a 20 cm stem but are often not produced when grown indoors. Outdoors it will grow to about 1 m tall and the same wide, though can be trimmed as necessary. For NZ gardeners, it is an appealing choice for bright indoor rooms, sheltered conservatories, and decorative container displays. Give it bright indirect light and quality indoor potting mix with good drainage to support its best growth.

How to grow Schefflera 'Green Goblin' in NZ

Grow Schefflera 'Green Goblin' in bright indirect light, using quality indoor potting mix with good drainage. Use a pot with drainage holes and position it away from cold draughts, heaters, and harsh direct sun. Water after planting and allow excess water to drain completely. Keep conditions warm and stable. Check the mix before watering again and adjust moisture to the season rather than following a fixed schedule. Check moisture regularly as the new roots settle into their surroundings.

Schefflera 'Green Goblin' care tips

Care for Schefflera 'Green Goblin' by matching moisture and feeding to its growing season. Check the potting mix regularly and water when the surface begins to dry, allowing excess water to drain. Feed lightly during spring and summer using a suitable indoor plant fertiliser. Remove tired leaves and check for scale or mealybugs. Keep the foliage away from cold glass and draughts, and reduce watering when growth slows in winter.

Schefflera 'Green Goblin' size, spacing, and growth rate

Schefflera 'Green Goblin' typically reaches about 1 m tall and 1 m wide under suitable conditions. For individual plants, allow about 1 m between centres to give the foliage space without excessive crowding. It has a moderate growth rate under suitable conditions. Final size varies with climate, soil, container size, and maintenance. Choose a container that supports the roots without excessive unused wet mix, and leave space around the display for airflow. Check the developing plant regularly and adjust nearby planting as its natural form becomes clearer.
