Fatsia 'Spider's Web'

Spider’s Web Fatsia 🌿✨ is loved for its bold hand-shaped leaves dusted and speckled with creamy white variegation, giving it a dramatic tropical look with a slightly frosted finish. It does best in bright indirect light indoors or shaded outdoor spaces, where the variegation stays crisp and the foliage can really show off without harsh sun. This plant is generally manageable, but it prefers even moisture and looks best when it is not allowed to dry out too hard between waterings. Pro tip: if the white pattern starts looking dull or the leaves scorch, move it out of strong direct sun and keep it away from hot drying vents 💧.
