Reply:There are several plants with the common name "Umbrella plant." If yours is a house plant, it's most likely a Schefflera, and is non-toxic (assuming it isn't full of nasty chemicals from the grower, as many comercially grown house plants are). However, several other "umbrella plants" (e.g., Podophyllum species) are extremely toxic.
Do a Google Images search to identify your plant.
