According to Japanese beliefs, the happiness tree attracts good luck, prosperity, harmony and joy to any home. Legend also has it that walking past this small tree is a sign of 'blessing'. Some people also believe that planting the male and female in the same pot brings luck to life, balancing the Yin and Yang energies. However, this small tree is said to only attract happiness when it is offered from the heart. Indoors, the Polyscias scutellaria 'Fabian' is often grown as a small bonsai tree, but medium-sized trees are also available. The Polyscias scutellaria 'Fabian' has very round, coin-shaped leaves.
