Product Details
The Money Tree (Pachira aquatica), also known as Malabar chestnut or Guiana chestnut, is a stunning tropical houseplant native to the wetlands of Central and South America. Its signature braided trunk and glossy, hand-shaped leaves (often in clusters of five) create an elegant, sculptural look that adds a touch of lush greenery and sophistication to any space. Indoors, it typically grows 3–6 feet tall, making it perfect as a statement plant for homes, offices, or desks.
People absolutely love the Money Tree for its strong association with good fortune, wealth, and positive energy in Feng Shui practices. The five leaflets are said to represent the five elements (wood, water, earth, fire, metal), while the braided trunks are believed to "lock in" prosperity—making it a popular gift for new businesses, homes, or anyone hoping to attract abundance and luck.
Easy Care Tips
Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal (near an east- or north-facing window works great). It tolerates lower light but grows best and stays fuller in brighter conditions—avoid harsh direct sun to prevent leaf scorch.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy—water when the top 1–2 inches feel dry. It appreciates regular moisture (reflecting its swampy origins) yet needs excellent drainage to avoid root rot. Reduce watering slightly in winter.
Humidity & Temperature: Prefers average to high humidity (mist occasionally or place near a humidifier) and warm temperatures (65–85°F / 18–29°C). Protect from cold drafts.
Soil & Feeding: Use a well-draining potting mix (add perlite if needed). Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.
Extra TLC: Rotate the plant occasionally for even growth, wipe leaves to keep them dust-free and shiny, and prune any yellow or damaged foliage.
Low-maintenance, air-purifying, pet-safe, and beautifully symbolic—the Money Tree is the perfect "lucky" plant that thrives with minimal fuss while bringing vibrant energy and style to your home! 🌿
