Money Tree: How to Grow, Trunk Thickening Techniques, & Braiding Tips (Pachira aquatica, P. glabra)

[@dannymontoya8214]

My money tree is 23 foot tall it's growing next to our hot tub . A neighbor moved out 20 years ago. And left it behind. It was about a foot tall then. Now I'm getting seeds🎉

[@plantvibrations]

Omg!! Would love to see it

[@bonitahutchins8178]

My adult daughter just passed away as we were emptying out her house she had only a couple of plants her daughter took one I took the other I took the money plant but the leaves are yellowish with spots on them and some leaves are dropping you could understand I'm sure how important it is for me to keep this plant growing and alive thank you for any help

[@plantvibrations]

Im really sorry to hear about your loss :( what you are describing sounds like a foliar fungus, not very serious but can spread throughout the plant and is caused by irregular watering typically. My suggestion is to cut the plant back like I showed and place outside in a shady location once weather permits and it’ll flush out new growth and start a new chapter. Blessings to you

[@mariamercy7317]

Dear Bonita, seeing your message three months later. My heart cries out for you. Prayers for comfort and strength from our Lord. God bless you! 🫂

[@yolandagonzalez4164]

Are the under sides of leaves supposed to be sticky?

[@krunkyk2294]

Hi Devin. You just saved my money tree. Putting it outside to dry out did the trick! It was overwatered, and now looks fabulous. Also your advice about needing to be pot bound before transplanting was well taken! Thanks, you really love plants.

[@plantvibrations]

Glad I could help! Makes me so happy to hear

[@Carsucci]

I've had one for 12 years now and is about 6 feet tall (without the pot). You taught me some useful tips! Thanks!

[@plantvibrations]

I imagine yours is a beauty!

[@edithcasey2641]

Plz help me!! My daughter bought me my $ tree about 9-10 yrs ago. I've just let it grow w/o pruning & I've only repotted it probably twice. After watching your vid I think it's pot is way too big but I'm still confused on how much I should trim back

[@edithcasey2641]

bc it's looking pretty sad these days. The leaves it does have are wilted & it's just not looking good at all.

[@fousies]

How do you control the growth?

[@Carsucci]

@fousies I just prune it back to the height I want to keep it at, and it fills back in in no time.

[@malissakerr9671]

[@AA-yc3cc]

Hey, thank you for the straightforward video! Can you explain how you keep your plants from attracting bugs and infestations while being outdoors and preventing them from spreading it to the other plants when we bring it indoors? I know some people give it bonide and isolate it, and it's a lot of work 😭

[@plantvibrations]

I've never had problems with getting bugs while the plants are outside. the plants are healthiest while outdoors and that keeps them resilient against pests. its when they are indoors in a forced environment that their immunity decreases making them more susceptible. i wouldn't worry about that

Hi, my daughter just gave me a Japanese money tree for Mother’s Day. She bought it from a farmers market. It is not braided at all. Just one trunk(diameter around base is about 12 inches, height about 9 inches). It has two very long skinny shoots and a few smaller shoots.. what do i do with this? Can i braid the shoots and go from there?

[@plantvibrations]

If it is still pliable you can try to braid it!

[@jesusknowsmethisilov]

Thank you. The shoots are very thin and pliable. So then would i cut it pack so it will thicken up with new shoots off of those new cuts

Hello. Thank you so much for this video. I have been searching for tips and this is the first useful thing I’ve found! After cutting back the trunks/stems, how long should I expect it to take for them to start growing again?

If you can place outdoors it’ll take about 6-8 weeks. Indoors will be double that

QUESTION: Thank u for the video Devin 🙏🏻 Would u pls explain in detail or do a video how much & where to cut back the leaves at the beginning of summer? Thank u again!

[@plantvibrations]

There will be a point along the stems where the leaves' green stems start to turn into brown woodier stems. you want to cut in the green section about an inch above where that woodiness section begin

[@xb683]

@@plantvibrations CLARIFICATION: Thank u for replying so quickly I bought my plant (small pot, 1 foot tall) from a store last year. Lol, I wish I could send or post a photo. I'll do my best to describe . . . Looking at the leaves & stems now, each has a singular stem growing up, which branch off into multiple leaves. The new stems r about 8 inches tall. If I'm understanding correctly, if I cut back to where the the stems start to look woodier, it looks like it would be back to where the plant was originally pruned to before being shipped for selling (cut the 8 inches new stems off, down to the top of the main trunks). Would that sound correct? Would pruning this much still encourage the trunk to grow in height & more full foliage? Or should I wait 1 or 2 years (allow the new stem growths to get a bit woody) before I prune? Thanks in advance!🙏🏻

Cut the top off about 3” above where the braid ends

[@isabelgregorio1019]

Hello. Thanks for sharing. Your plants are beautiful. I inherited a 20 year old Pachira and it's not doing very well. It grew without braiding and appears weak. Will it be possible to cut the 3 stems you have, place them to take root, plant and braid them? And discard the entire current base where the braid is, as it is quite dry (it looks ugly). Thank you

[@plantvibrations]

I’ve tried a few times to propagate via stem cuttings as you propose but I’ve not had success rooting them. Perhaps using root hormone can help

Thanks for the great video! Please, I have a question and hope for some help. We have a money tree in our house (based in UK). It has grown in a full on tree, reaching the ceiling of the room. It is quite close to a window so it does have some direct light, the window is orientated south west. It is braided with four main small trunks, each one of them generating a branch. The question is, the branches have gone really long and high. Now, all the leaves of the lower part have gone quite yellow and I had to remove them. Leaving 3/4 of the plant without leaves. Only having leaves in the high part of the tree. Is there a way for us to bring some growth to the lower part of the tree? Is pruning going to help? I hope it makes sense and I am open to any suggestion! Thanks.

Help please! I bought a money tree plant in October, I repotted it and it began to drop leaves and leaves where turning yellow and have notches in them. It took about a month or more for the soil to dry out so I became worried about root rot so I stopped watering. I also became concerned that I may have planted the trunk a little to low in the soil, so is pushed the soil away from the trunk. It seemed to help it came back and with lots of new foliage. But now here it is May I haven't lost anymore leaves since December or any yellow leaves. BUT now I noticed one of the trunks on it is dried out at the bottom like if its dehydrated. Is there any way of saving it? Any recommendations? Thank You

Nah…with all this work I would definitely replant it in a larger pot; it’s a big beautiful plant and deserves a larger home.

[@plantvibrations]

It is just so hard to move as is, and i don't know if I'd be able to in an even larger pot!

Help I’m killing my new money plant and idk how to distinguish the difference because it’s similar to all the issues you said it could happen

[@plantvibrations]

you can send an image via instagram and i can try to diagnose

Do we want direct sunlight or not 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@plantvibrations]

Inside the home ‘direct’ light behind a window is great. But if you put outside in the warmer months, direct light would be too much

[@plantvibrations]

I wouldn’t recommend it

[@frantyi6424]

I would like to get one but I don’t want to do all that work 🤣 I don’t have a green thumb 🤣

[@plantvibrations]
