Scutellaria Polyscias 4"—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage

Meet the Scutellaria Polyscias 4", a plant that’s as thoughtful as you are. Known as the “Shield Aralia,” this little wonder shows off glossy, scalloped leaves arranged like miniature shields, giving it a bold yet refined presence in any room.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but can handle a softer corner. Just don’t tuck it away in the dark.
• Water: Keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy. Let the top layer dry slightly before the next pour.
• Humidity: Appreciates average household humidity but loves an extra boost in drier homes.

What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: Steady new leaves with rich green colour mean it’s content in its spot.
• Needs TLC: Leaf drop or crispy edges? Either it’s too dry, too dark, or ready for a humidity upgrade.

Good News for Pet Parents:
Not pet-safe—best displayed somewhere your furry sidekick can admire from afar.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:
• The 4" size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.
• Your Scutellaria Polyscias will arrive in its nursery pot—any containers or ceramics shown are for styling inspiration only.
• At 3B’s Flowers, we photograph every plant in-house, but nature doesn’t do clones. Your Shield Aralia may have unique quirks or leaf patterns that make it one-of-a-kind.

Symbolism with Style:
The Shield Aralia symbolizes protection, resilience, and grounded strength. It’s a meaningful gift for someone starting a new chapter—or a grounding accent for your own space.
