Great for beginners

6" to 8" W 12" to 18" H

Honestly, we love this plant so much. Yes, it’s definitely a stump but what a gorgeous one. Unusual and full of character, they love bright light as much as indirect light, and are really happy to go a while between waterings. As they mature, they grow upwards of 3’ to 4’ and appear much more shrub-like than anything. Native to the Pacific Islands, their leaves are green on the sun-side and purple on their underside.

Customer Reviews

Beautiful Plant!

After being "out for delivery" on the UPS truck for two days, my Aralia Ming arrived in perfect condition! It was very well packed and all the foliage looked healthy and green! I love it so much I ordered a second one! Much thanks to Debbie in Customer Support and the great team in shipping!

Lovely, thriving ming!

Very simply...the ming is so beautiful I am going to order one for a Wisconsin friend.

Thank you for your exceptional quality plants.

Awesome

I ordered my second plant but unfortunately got heat stressed during shipping. They INSTANTLY replaced my plant and arrived perfectly.

Love this!

Arrived quickly and wonderfully packed. Such a pretty plant

So far so good.

I tend to be hard on plants but this plant is so adorable. She’s is good and healthy.

Extraordinary

First, I ordered one of these stump Ming Aralias from Lively route. My first plant came, it was very nicely packaged. I am a degreed horticulturist, and I can tell when people take care in handling their plants. The first plant did not make it (UPS must have turned it upside down a few times!), but the next little plant that Lively Root shipped to me is absolutely gorgeous and healthy. It is one of the coolest 6" Ming Aralia plants I have ever seen, and I have been in the interiorscape business for 20-plus years. Florida was not able to ship me a single 6" plant like Lively Root was able to do. I am more than pleased.

Outstanding Product, Packaging

My aralia was in wonderful shape, packaged to withstand the trials of shipping. It looks wonderful, didn't lose any foliage. Great job!!!

Excellence arrival

Plant arrived in excellent condition. Enjoying it very much.

The most popular plant I’ve shared with friends. Growth is phenomenal. Very little care needed. I’ve directed others to your website to order this and more.
