Product Details
Radermachera sinica, commonly known as the China Doll plant, is a stunning evergreen houseplant prized for its lush, glossy, deep green foliage. Native to the subtropical mountains of southern China and Taiwan, this elegant small tree features delicate, feathery compound leaves that give it a refined, tropical vibe. Indoors, it stays compact, typically reaching 4-6 feet tall, making it perfect for bright corners, living rooms, or offices where it adds a touch of sophisticated greenery.
People absolutely love the China Doll for its **attractive, glossy, and lacy leaves** that create a full, vibrant look, its relatively fast growth (once settled), and its air-purifying qualities—it helps remove indoor pollutants like formaldehyde and benzene. It's pet-friendly, symbolizes harmony and prosperity in some traditions like Feng Shui, and brings a fresh, exotic feel to any space without overwhelming it. Many plant enthusiasts appreciate how it can be pruned to stay bushy and shapely, turning it into a beautiful focal point.
Caring Tips for Your China Doll
Light: Provide plenty of bright, indirect light (4-5+ hours daily). An east- or west-facing window is ideal; avoid harsh direct sun to prevent leaf scorch.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. Water when the top inch feels dry, ensuring excellent drainage to avoid root rot. Reduce watering slightly in winter.
Humidity & Temperature: Prefers average to higher humidity (mist occasionally or use a pebble tray). Thrives at 18-24°C; protect from cold drafts, sudden temperature changes, or air vents.
Soil & Feeding: Use a well-draining, slightly acidic potting mix (peat-based with perlite works great). Fertilize every 2 weeks in spring/summer with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10).
Pruning & Maintenance: Pinch tips or prune regularly to encourage bushiness and control size. It dislikes change (light, location, repotting), so keep conditions stable to prevent leaf drop. If leaves fall, don't worry—it often recovers with consistent care
With the right stable spot and a little attention, your China Doll will thrive and become a cherished part of your home!
