    Hello Forum! This is my first post (HURRAY!)

    I'm finding conflicting information online, but can schefflera delavayi do okay in full sun. I've read that it might grow a bit slower and get smaller leaves, but I'm not certain if that’s true or if there is anything else to keep in mind.

    Thank you!

    Cecilia

    Hmm. Well, someone will correct me if I am wrong, but some of the nurseries that are operated by people I know who would have seen the plant in the wild suggest it can be a full sun plant. Given that it also grows along stream banks ( Schefflera delavayi in Flora of China @ efloras.org ), I'd think it can handle it.
