How fast do umbrella trees grow?

Where do you put an Umbrella plant?

First, on our list on how to care for your Umbrella plant is to place it in a spot where it can receive bright indirect light. It can tolerate direct indoor light and medium-to-low light, but it will become leggy and grow more slowly. Avoid placing your plant under the intense, direct sun because its leaves will burn.
