The money tree does not require much water and prefers a humid to slightly dry environment. It needs to be watered every day when the temperature is high. It has strong drought resistance and can make the soil slightly dry, but excessive watering will cause root rot.

When the temperature reaches 35 degrees Celsius in summer, the money tree should be shaded in time, and water spraying measures should be taken to cool it down to create a suitable temperature and a refreshing environment.

When choosing the soil for planting, the money tree should choose soil with good air permeability. Coarse sand, peat and other soils can be used. The soil pH is acidic and the soil should be changed frequently. When choosing a flowerpot, do not choose one that is too large, as too large a size will cause the plant to be unstable.
