Can anyone tell be a minimum temp for this plant. I'll be darned if I can find it anywhere. The one I have is not a bonsai and it's getting to tall for the light set up I have. Was wondering if it's safe to put outside yet. I'm in upstate NY....Thanks.

Thanks..Right now I have it on my desk and it has grown past my lights. I'd have to put it on my floor, and I really don't want my dog getting at it. I guess I can always cut it back. Are they tolerant of pruning?

I have left my scheffleras outside in <50F for a night or two.
They are very rugged plants.

My tropicals have been outside for well over a month.
