Are you sure? Brassaia actinophylla is a huge plant with foot-wide leaves, hardly bonsai material. Dwarf schefflera is Heptapleurum arboricola. There are dwarf cultivars of this species which are used for bonsai, especially banyan style. I found out recently this species is actually an epiphyte, so grow it somewhat like an orchid, in a very loose mix.
