It’s a Schefflera. It propagates quite easily. Taking this branch, for example, if you chop at the red line and cleanly pluck off the leaves shown in yellow, and plant up to the blue line, it should root nicely if placed in a bright, warm room. The plant does fine with direct sun, but until you see new growth (as evidence of some rooting), I keep mine out of strong direct sun. I just chopped one of mine that I’m working on—all of mine were propagated from cuttings.

Thanks Sugi_C!
Should I wait until next summer to do this? I am in the USA, Boise Idaho. It’s a region 6.

Hi Lisa,
That depends on where you live. If it’s heading into a true winter with cold/snow, then I’d personally wait until next spring. As someone from CA, I pay less attention to the seasons, but everything does slow considerably come Nov-Jan/Feb.

Great! Thank you again for the advice.
The weather is certainly changing here in Idaho. You can definitely tell that Autumn is just around the corner.

I love my plants and want them to thrive. So clearly it would be best to wait until the summer!
