An arbicola is a dwarf scheffelera. They grow in Florida outside, but are suspectible to freezing. They also make a beautiful, bushy indoor plant. They like to be watered on a regular basis, but do not keep them too moist. They don't like to sit in water. Just miracle grow or something like that should be adequate for fertilizer.
If they start getting leggy looking, gently clip the branch to where you want it. Where ever you trim it, two more branches will come out there. If you are wanting a very full bushy look, trim your branches carefully, keeping in mind how the branches will multiply.
It is a very easy plant to take care of. There is a variegated variety and a dwarf variety also. All very nice.
