Great video. I’ve grown 2 Schefflera Rhododendrifolias for many years now in my north Cambridgeshire garden which have got through some pretty harsh winters and been fine. In last winters harsh winter the more exposed one took a bit of leaf damage on the upper most leaves but this just caused the plant to create lots of side shoots lower downso it’s a pretty hardy Schefflera.
I was nevee full certain of the relationship between collection numbers, cultivars and named cultivars so that was very interesting. I have to adjust my expectations with hiw quickly plants will nature in my garden which is only a couple of years old, compared to the decades of ideal conditions at Abbotsbury. Great to see though.
Hi Craig 👋 I had one as a house plant years ago. I did not realize there were so many different types. And didn’t know they grew so huge. Very interesting video. Thank you.
I loved this well presented video full of interesting information. I'm glad not to be the only one struggling with Schefflera propagation. What's the chance of getting Shaun to share some of his tips? It would make a wonderful part 2!! Please🙏
Very interesting video and very professionally done! Thank you! Would love to see something about more costal (sub)-tropical gardens! I live right next to the sea with a sloping garden facing north-west and I'm looking for plants that are or looks tropical, but will grow in such windy and salty conditions.
Here in the states Monrovia produces 2 named cultivars of Schefflera taiwaniana collected by Dan Hinkley. They have Schefflera taiwaniana ‘Hingdfn’ trade name Goldfinger and ‘Monhinschf’ trade name Winged Phoenix. They’re both quite beautiful with long, narrow leaflets, stems and petioles. Goldfinger has pale greenish/gold stems, petioles and veins and very dark green leaves. It is stunning and I’m dying to get my hands on one. Winged Phoenix has been in some nurseries locally for about a year now. Hopefully Goldfinger shows up soon too
Learned this the hard way: always grow these under canopy in colder area's. Last ywar in the open all died, this year -6 under trachy canopy zero damage on T. Taiwaniana)
Very interesting. Thanks
Thanks for a very interesting one
Glad you enjoyed it

Palm trees would be a nice video to do next Craig. Thank you Steve m.
Noted! Thanks for watching Steve 😀

It would wouldn’t it! I’ll see what I can do 🌱😀
Thanks, great videos. It would be well worth shooting in 4k60Hz if you can.
Thanks. Absolutely, we’ll be doing more 4K content in the future. 👍

That Fatsipanensis is a real beauty! 😍👍🏼
I would love to see you do a Palm specific video Craig 😃🌴🌴🌴
Noted! Keep an eye out for a palm video in the future 😀🌴

Wonderfull so interesting
Glad you think so! Thanks Janine 😀🪴
Another great video love schefflera just brought a delavyi,aplina and a gracillis great foliage. Very hard to find them in this country.
Oh wow! That’s a great collection you have there. Yes they can be quite hard to get hold of can’t they 😀
@@GrowParadise yes Craig very hard to get them. Taiwaniana very easy to get. Always looking out for them.
I've tried to grow several species of schefflera only my baby Taiwanianas and my Swelliensis are still growing,i'm in south london
Yes they can be a bit fussy when they are young.
20:00 What is the plants in the right ? Echium 🤔
20:00 can you tell me which plant is in the bottom right corner?
And is the bigger plant coming into view on the right at 20:13 a bigger specimen of the same species?
First again !
