4. Planting

Replant the disinfected and dried trunks of the money tree in moist soil. Use loose and fertile leaf mold or horticultural nutrient soil. You can add some vermiculite or anti-root rot particles. Be sure to ensure the air permeability of the soil.

5. Slow down the roots

Place the money tree in a warm, semi-shaded place. Do not water it frequently. Just keep the soil moist. You can sprinkle water around the money tree every morning to keep it moist. Do not move it frequently and wait for the money tree to take root again.

Death by drought

Asparagus fern likes moisture. Many flower lovers know that the frequency of watering flowers and plants should be reduced in winter, but if the indoor temperature is higher than 15℃, asparagus fern should be maintained normally.

1. Watering

Water the asparagus fern pot until water can flow out of the water holes at the bottom of the pot.

If the soil is compacted and difficult to water, you can choose an immersion pot. Place the asparagus fern pot in a larger pot, add water to the larger pot to about 1/2, and wait for the water to seep into the soil from the water holes at the bottom of the pot. You can take out the asparagus fern pot when the surface of the soil is moist.
