Aralia Miniature Plant Introduction

A genus of the Araliaceae, the Aralia, commonly known as spikenard, consists of 68 species of plants. It originates from the Americas and the Asia, species pre-dominantly occurring in the woodlands in the mountain. The plants from this species vary in size, varying from as small as 20 inches in height, to growing up to 20 metres tall. The plants have double-compounded leaves that are clustered in towards the end of the branch or stem, while some species have leaves that are covered in bristles.

The exotic looks of the Aralia plants can be attributed to its woody and thick curving that is unique to the family. Being used as a floor plant when grown up, the Aralia also makes for excellent table plant during its infancy. The plant is available in a number of varieties, ranging from solid green, white, or gold to dark green to almost black leaves of the petioles and leaves. The massive sweeping branches and the woody trunks are the most attractive attributes of the Aralia.

The Aralia can take on conditions with low lighting. However, bright or medium indirect sunlight promotes healthy growth of the plant. The soil required by the plant should be light, well-aerated and have a base of peat. Liquid houseplant fertilizers can be used during the summer and spring twice a month, while monthly addition is sufficient during the winter and fall season. Overwatering is quite fatal to the Aralia and must be avoided. Trimming of the tips of the plant leads to progressive new growth.

WHAT TO DO?

  • Every plant has different type of light, feed and water requirements.
  • Most of the plants like moderate watering, let the couple of inch at surface dry before watering again.
  • Some plants require frequent feeding but most, once in a year, feed the plant at beginning of spring.
  • Repot the plant every couple of years in slightly bigger container.

WHAT NOT TO DO?

  • Avoid frequent watering in winters, it will kill the plant.
  • Avoid temperature shocks like taking it suddenly indoors or outdoors.
  • Avoid partial watering and use water sprayers to water equally in all directions.
  • Avoid repotting plants in large containers, most of the plants likes to be in groups.
  • Avoid over fertilizing, quantity depends on NPK ingredients but plants do need not more than a spoon.

COMMON UNDERSTANDING

Plants are living creatures require a little sensitivity towards them, following common instructions are helpful for keeping them happy:
  • Dig around the root zone with your fingers to a depth of 2-3' for small plants and water generously when the soil feels dry to the touch.
  • Use a balanced fertilizer i.e., 10-10-10, 14-14-14 (Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K)) food with micro-nutrients.
  • Be observant of the changes in plant vigor and growth, plants are more susceptible to disease and pests if they are weakened through poor maintenance.
  • It is good to make it a practice to inspect plants progress so you can spot systems of disease or insect infestations well in advance of any serious problem.
  • Pruning is required at times for plant health and aesthetics, as a general note remove the damaged leaves and branches as soon as those are noticed to avoid infections.
