I was gifted this plant and was told it was a Schefflera Alpine. It came from a local botanical center where some friends volunteered one day. It’s so pretty and is still so green and shiny like when I got it in mid-April. It just hasn’t made any new leaves. I don’t know much about this type of plant. Does anyone have advice? Do we agree that’s what this is?
