How to prune the money tree

1. Pruning method

The main purpose of pruning the money tree during maintenance is to make it grow faster and look more beautiful. Therefore, the method of pruning is very simple. The thicker branches on the plant should be retained, and some dry, rotten, and yellow leaves should be trimmed off. If some branches grow faster and longer than other branches, they need to be shortened appropriately, otherwise the aesthetics will be reduced.

2. Precautions

There is no strict fixed time for pruning. As long as you find branches that affect the growth of the plant during the maintenance period, you can prune it at that time. If you grow it indoors, the space is usually small, so you may need to prune it more often. It is also suitable to prune it when repotting it.

3. Maintenance after cutting

1. Light: After pruning, do not place it under direct light immediately, let alone exposed to too strong sunlight. You can temporarily place it in a relatively cool place with scattered light. If pruning is done during the winter, it needs to be exposed to light throughout the day and the room temperature should not be too low.

2. Water: Before the incision has healed, it cannot be exposed to water. The soil should be slightly moist, but do not spray the plant with water.
