Radermachera 'China Doll' - The Porch Star: Lush, Elegant Indoor Tree in 6" Pot

Unveil the allure of The Porch Star! The Radermachera 'China Doll' is like that celebrity who’s effortlessly chic without even trying, adorned with lush, finely divided leaves that whisper elegance. Whether you've got a little one for your desk or a mightier one commanding attention from a corner, this houseplant ages gracefully into a tree with a thick, lush canopy that's basically the botanical equivalent of Beyoncé.

Benefits:

• Air-Purifying: Improves indoor air quality.
• Compact Beauty: Ideal for small spaces when young.
• Elegant Foliage: Adds a sophisticated touch to your decor.

Care Instructions:

The Porch Star may crave the spotlight, but only in indirect light. No harsh sunlight, please! Water it when the top inch of soil feels dry. Too much love (aka overwatering) is a no-no. Humidity is its friend, so misting is highly appreciated. As for food? A balanced houseplant fertilizer once a month during its growing season will keep it at peak performance.

Décor Tips:

Pop The Porch Star in a sleek ceramic pot or a rustic wooden planter to accentuate its rich green foliage. It’s perfect on desks, bright countertops, tables, or window sills. As it grows taller, consider letting it stand proudly in a corner beside a chic armchair or your favorite reading nook.
