Can anyone identify this plant for me? I need to know if it is poisonous.

Most of the Araliacea are mildly toxic (upset stomach if eaten).

Welcome, Valcomeens!
Both Scotsgran and Fractal have got it, and I found this:

Welcome from me too Valcomeens. Yes, I'll go with what Scotsgran, Fractal and Tugbrethil say. Lol. No, seriously, I agree with them. I do believe this is the plant nicknamed 'The Umbrella Plant' :o))

Welcome toGoy Valcomeens. I think it is a Schefflera arboricola. In UK we would keep it in a shady place indoors and it can go outside in the summer.
