    I would tend to agree with a Magnesium deficiency. This can happen when the soil is too acidic, or with plants that tend to consume it quickly. I suspect the former.

    Try testing the pH of your soil, and add DOLOMITIC LIME. Just a modest, single handful will suffice. It will provide, both, Magnesium and Calcium, which get used by the plant in tandem. Just try not to let the pH spike up over 7, which will rarely happen.

    This article will offer more information on the care of the plant: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/aralia-plants/japanese-aralia-care.htm
