How to care for money tree?

The money tree is famous for its plump branches and round leaves. The leaves are brightly colored, which not only symbolizes good luck and good fortune, but also has an elegant shape and great ornamental value. Placing it in the home can add a touch of vitality and beauty. Let’s learn how to care for the money tree.

1. Suitable soil

Money tree needs loose and breathable soil for cultivation. It is recommended to use humus soil mixed with sandy soil. Such soil is rich in nutrients and has good drainage, which helps the roots of the money tree to grow healthily.

2. Adequate lighting

Although the money tree is shade-tolerant, it still needs plenty of sunlight to grow. It is recommended to place it in a well-lit area, ensuring at least 4 hours of light per day. At the same time, be careful to avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent sunburn on the leaves.

3. Suitable temperature

Money tree prefers a warm environment, and the most suitable growth temperature is 20℃ to 30℃. Too high or too low a temperature may inhibit its growth. Therefore, we should pay attention to ventilation and heat dissipation in summer, and take measures to keep warm in winter to avoid cold damage.

4. Reasonable fertilizer and water management

In order to promote the multi-headed growth of the money tree, sufficient nutrition needs to be provided. Applying diluted organic compound fertilizer once a month can meet its growth needs. When watering, follow the principle of "water when the soil is dry, and water thoroughly when you water", and avoid frequent watering that causes waterlogging and root rot. In summer and winter, the frequency of fertilization should be reduced appropriately.

In addition to the above basic maintenance points, flower lovers can also promote the growth of more side branches of the money tree and form a fuller plant shape through pruning, division and other methods. Everyone is welcome to share more maintenance experiences and communicate and learn together.
