Although the money tree likes light, it is not very demanding on light, because the plant can grow well whether in strong light or weak light, but full-sun maintenance can make the plant more compact and fuller.

The money tree can be exposed to the sun because the plant needs to carry out photosynthesis. It usually needs to be placed in a sunny place so that the plant can receive sufficient light, but it cannot be exposed to strong sunlight to avoid sunburn of the leaves.

Growth habits of the fortune tree

The money tree is an evergreen tree. The plant likes high temperature and humidity. The suitable temperature for its growth is 18-22℃. It is not cold-resistant and avoids dryness. It does not have high requirements for soil. It is best to use loose, fertile and well-drained soil.
