Mini umbrella trees are a really fun plant to include in your collection. They grow like a shrub and can typically be found in landscaping in warmer parts of the country like Florida, but they do great indoors as well if you have a bright enough spot to put them. They're great space fillers and the new growth that comes in is teeny and adorable, which you'll see often once you nail down the care requirements.
