The Money Tree (Pachira aquatica), native to Central and South America, is a popular houseplant known for its braided trunk and lush, palmate leaves. In feng shui, it's believed to bring good luck and prosperity.

Braiding Process:

Braiding is done when the plant is young and its stems are flexible. Multiple saplings are planted together, and their trunks are gently intertwined as they grow. This not only enhances the plant's aesthetic appeal but also provides structural support.

Care Guidelines:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch.

  • Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Regular misting or using a humidity tray can be beneficial.

  • Temperature: Ideal indoor temperatures range between 60°F to 75°F (16°C to 24°C).

  • Soil: Requires well-draining potting mix. A mix containing peat moss, perlite, and compost is ideal.

  • Fertilization: During the growing season (spring and summer), feed monthly with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce feeding during the dormant period in fall and winter.

Pruning and Maintenance:

Regular pruning helps maintain the desired shape and promotes healthy growth. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves, as well as leggy growth, to encourage a fuller and more balanced appearance.

    We will gladly accept returns for a refund, provided the items and plants have not been damaged, propogated, or repotted.
