With its tropical lobed leaves that can span up to 30cms across Fatsia is great for bringing the jungle vibe and brightening up a shady room. It has the added benefit of being a great air purifier, so removes nasty toxins.
They are adaptable, can cope with shade, bright indirect light, even a little direct sun. However, too much light will cause leaves to yellow.
