POLYSCIAS BALFOURIANA (balfour aralia) 4”
Balfour Aralia Polyscias 4”—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage
Meet the Balfour Aralia Polyscias 4”, a plant that’s as thoughtful as you are. Often dubbed the “Dinner Plate Aralia” for its rounded, scalloped leaves, this leafy stunner brings major texture and a vintage vibe. With rich green foliage on upright stems, it grows like a mini tree—elegant, architectural, and just the right amount of wild.
The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Loves bright, indirect light, but can handle medium light too. Keep it cozy near a window, but out of direct sun.
• Water: Let the top inch of soil dry between waterings. It prefers a drink when it’s actually thirsty, thank you very much.
• Humidity: Appreciates some humidity—occasional misting or being near a humidifier will keep it happy.
What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: Bushy growth and firm stems = it’s living the good life.
• Needs TLC: Leaf drop or yellowing? Probably too dry or drafty—tweak conditions and it’ll bounce back.
Good News for Pet Parents:
Not pet-safe. Display out of reach from curious pets—this one’s strictly for admiring, not nibbling.
Extra Love for Detail Lovers:
• The 4” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the plant’s overall height.
• Your Balfour Aralia will arrive in its nursery pot—decorative containers shown are just for style inspo.
• Every plant is photographed in-house at 3B’s Flowers in Stony Plain, AB. Your Aralia’s growth shape and leaf patterns will be uniquely its own.
Symbolism with Style:
Aralias have long symbolized harmony and longevity. This compact variety makes a wonderful gift for new beginnings, or for anyone needing a bit of grounded calm with a side of whimsy.
