Money Tree, ‘Malabar Chestnut, Saba Nut, Pachira’

Latin: Pachira aquatica

Light: Position your Money Tree in medium to bright indirect light, turning it every time you water it for even growth and leaf development.

Water: For a 5-inch money tree, water with 2 ice cubes or 3 TBSP of water once a week. Once water drips from the bottom of the pot,  stop watering and empty the saucer. Your Money Tree requires less water in the winter months when growth slows.

Additional Info

Try not to move your Money Tree very often, they prefer to stay in the same spot. If you do need to relocate, you may see a bit of leaf drop. Not to worry, it will adjust.
