A striking foliage plant known for its dramatic variegation and bold tropical look. Fatsia japonica ‘Spider’s Web’ features large, palmate leaves dusted and speckled with creamy white, giving the plant a frosted, web-like appearance. Its lush, architectural form makes it perfect for brightening shaded corners indoors or adding texture to patios and porches in mild climates.
Appearance
This variety stands out with broad, glossy leaves patterned in irregular white splashes and edges. New growth often emerges greener and becomes more variegated as it matures, creating a dynamic, ever-changing display.
Light
Thrives in bright, indirect light to medium shade. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the variegation.
Water
Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch to dry between waterings. It appreciates higher humidity but adapts well to normal indoor levels.
Temperature & Environment
Prefers moderate indoor temperatures and can tolerate cooler spaces better than many tropicals. Protect from drafts and extreme heat.
Growth Habit
Naturally full and leafy, with potential to reach several feet tall indoors. Prune lightly to maintain shape or encourage branching.
Pet Safety
Fatsia japonica is considered toxic if ingested by pets.
