Another stunning and intriguing genus in the Araliaceae (ginsengs, scheffleras, aralias, etc.). This has the general appearance of a Schefflera species (an evergreen shrub or small tree with very large and ornamental leaves). This species features thorny stems and large and palmate, deeply lobed leaves with jagged margins. The flowers of Brassaiopsis are typically borne in long and pendulous chains of small “golf ball‑like” clusters but I have not seen this particular species in flower. Native to lower elevation forests in the Sino‑Himalaya and probably best as a container plant in areas prone to colder temps (less than 20 F?).
