If i mix cactus and succent and potting mix soil, does the money tree will survive and grow?

[@jackjack6273]

I purchased a small plant from Lowes and am concerned because it was sitting in a drainage pot inside a ceramic pot in about 1-1/2in of water. I repotted it after reading on line that they should not be sitting in water. Now a week later, the bottom leaves are turning yellow and falling off. What should I do to save this plant?

[@AnnasViolets]

Hey Jack. If you think the roots may be rotten, I would recommend taking it out of the soil, checking and removing all rotten roots and planting it again. But also, maybe it's just bottom older leaves. It can be natural. Maybe observe it for a bit, if more leaves get yellow than definitely check the roots

[@AnnasViolets]

Hi. I would suggest taking the plant out of the soil, checking the roots, if they are not rotten, then plant it in a pot, based on the root system. They don't need big pots. Hopefully, it's not rotten, but I doubt it, as otherwise the stems wouldn't get dry :(

[@gausmedia]

[@sanintrracy]

Thank you for this informative video. I have 2 money plants, one I’ve had for a couple of years, and one I just purchased. I did my research and was not having any problems with any of my plant. A out 3 months ago, my granddaughter decided she’d help me water my plants, I did mention to her not to water that particular plant because the soil need to dry in between waterings, she must of not heard me because she watered it. About 3 days later I started getting yellow spotting on about 4 or 5 leaves which I ended up loosing. At about the months time after this situation, I noticed little balls of fungus on the top of the soil. I waited for it to completely dry up and at the next watering I took a spoon and scraped about 1/4 inch of top soil from the plant to try and eliminate this fungus. I’m keeping an eye on it to see if the leaves start turning yellow and the fungus grows back. Please let me know if I’m missing something to try and save my plant. Thank you.

[@AnnasViolets]

Hey Sandra, is the plant in a very big pot? Or will the soil get dry quick? If it grows in a very big pot, or if the soil is not sandy, maybe it's worth repotting than waiting till it will get dry. It's just an idea

I've gone through 3 money tree's. I'm typically pretty good with indoor plants, but this particular plant is just a pain in the ass to take care of. Tried watering it once every 2 weeks, died after 3 months. Current one I have, tried watering it once a week and now one of the branches has already died. And I am keeping it in an indirect light area. Maybe I am just not buying a healthy tree.

[@AnnasViolets]

Does the pot have big drainage holes? Is it in a sandy, well-drained soil? Does the soil get dry between the watering?

[@candice44441]

Don’t put too much water in it, just do ice cubes once per week, these type of plants don’t like too much water and too much sun.

[@honeyyyyos9786]

When I first got my money tree, the first thing I did wrong was repotting it in a very big pot. However, my money tree is doing very good. I had it for about a month now.

[@AnnasViolets]

I would definitely recommend repotting it again in a smaller one. It will take just one time overwatering and you will not notice how it will start to rot, until it's late :(

Hi..i have a question about my spanish lavender plant plz...i overwinter it in a pot indoors during this winter since it cannot survive in my climate outdoors during winter..i put it in my basement where it's about 50 degrees Fahrenheit..and mostly dark..with a little light..i would water it once every 3 weeks..but now all the leaves are grey and brittle..fo you think it will come back or is it dead?how will I know if its alive or dead? Do you have any suggestions plz..thx

[@AnnasViolets]

Hi, a problem here may be being in the darkness for 3 months. If all leaves are black and there is no healthy/alive tissue, most probably the plant will not recover. In any case, you can prune it a little bit, put in a bright and warm place and let's hope it will recover

Maybe it's still possible to save it. You can take it out of the soil, remove all rotten parts and repot in fresh soil (do not overwater), also choose a smaller pot, if you remove a lot of roots.

Hey Mayra, you can cut the dead parts. But also, take it out of the pot, check the roots, cut everything that's rotten, plant it up again in fresh soil, don't water too much and too often. Also, there will be a rubber band holding all branches together, you can remove it. The branches will still stay braided

Hey :) Yes, that can be the reason, but also faded silvery spots can be damage by the thrips. Check if there are tiny white, green or black insects on the leaves.

Thank you for this amazing and informative video! I bought my first money tree 3 weeks ago and it’s been happy.

I know it’s hasn’t been a long time since I brought it home, but im trying to take a good care. Can overwatering be the problem? Or opposite? Or am I overpanicking and that’s normal…

Hi Aiturgan, overwatering can cause it, indeed. Reduce watering a little bit and the new leaves should be fine.

[@Mary-zo7hp]

I am so glad I discovered this video! I have a money tree I purchased from Ikea when it was only about 10" tall. It is now a 7' tall tree. I am in central Florida. It is outside, in my pool cage but under a roof. It faces east and gets morning sun. By noon it is in full shade but because the sun reflects off the pool it still gets a lot of light. This year we had a mild, wet winter. I have had greater than normal leaf loss, and a lot of the leaves, especially lower leaves and those more exposed to the sun, have turned brown at the tips. I am not sure if the pot is too small, if it needs fertilizer, if it is a fungus issue, or I am not watering correctly. Advice?

[@AnnasViolets]

Hey Mary, I think in Florida the climate may be perfect for these plants. It's very sunny, warm and humid. If the tips turn brown, maybe you don't water it enough and being under the bright sun, the leave still get a bit burned? I would change the place of the plant and would observe if it continues. As for repotting, they don't need a big pot, but if it's still in the nursery pot, maybe it needs fresh soil and/or fertilizing.

[@user-DianaR960]

What should I do after a possible root rot , does it eventually fix itself ?

[@AnnasViolets]

It will be better if you repot it in fresh soil, which will not be wet. Don't water it that much and before repotting cut all rotten roots. :) Hope it helps. It will not recover itself, if the roots are rotting it will move even to the stems

Hello, fairly new money tree mom here. I received a money tree for my birthday in March, but my leaves are now light green and slightly wrinkled/ shriveled up. They are in all sorts of directions up and down. Am I watering too much? I put about 3 tbsp of filtered water once a week or sometimes just coat the top of the soil well. Is this too much? How can I check for root rotting? Also I have a pot with no holes. Never picked up the tree to see if there is a plastic one inside though. Clearly I'm not a plant person and am really trying to keep my little tree alive. Thank you in advance. :)

[@AnnasViolets]

Hey Chasity. I think the problem may be in a pot with no holes. No matter how much you water, the bottom will always be moist, as there is no air ventilation and sooner or later the tree will get rotten. I would suggest that you repot the tree in a pot (not big) with big holes and use sandy soil that will get dry quicker

[@AnnasViolets]

It will grow, but it's better to leave green branches. From the wooden parts it may be hard or will take long until it grows

I cannot find pots without holes in Ikea. I put rocks in the bottom of my pots.

[@AnnasViolets]

You can make holes yourself. They are very important, especially for Pachira, otherwise it can get rotten. If it is a plastic pot, you can make a hole with a hot nail. If it's a ceramic pot, you need a nail or smth sharp and a hammer and do it like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jX-zanaVlqx4fJo

If you stay connected with nature placed any houseplant or indoor plants in any corner of your house. It will make your house more presentable.

The leaves in mine is now getting some white spots and it looks like something is definitely wrong. Any advice

[@AnnasViolets]

Hey Ann, if it's white-silvery irregular spots, it's most probably thrips. I have a separate video on thrips and how they look like, and how to get rid of them. Look for them especially under the leaves, but also on the leaves. They can be tiny white, green and black. If you find one, most probably they are on all plants and you need to treat all plants, even if you don't see any spots yet. They lay eggs everywhere and don't even need a partner for that

[@garycooper2774]

Can I put 2 inches of stone at the bottom of the pot for drainage. The pot has one hole in the middle.

[@AnnasViolets]

Yes, it's possible. Maybe you can even make more holes? I always prefer to have more holes in the pots and no drainage layer at all

[@asherTSP]

Hello! I really enjoyed your video. We just bought this plant and after watching your video, I fear we may have over watered it and also would move it outside sometimes for sunlight because it’s located by a window but the window is draped. The leaves are dying at the tips and kind of curling. Could you please tell me what you think?

[@dyguijarro]

I wish I could attach a photo, but my trunk part two are shriveled, look almost like a raisin. The leaves are green and perky. Some yellow leaves 🍃 but not many. Do you have any suggestions?

[@AnnasViolets]

If the stems are soft and wrinkled, they get rotten. You cannot save the wooden stems, but the green ones, if they still look healthy may grow new roots in water and you can propagate it this way

[@dyguijarro]

@@AnnasViolets Thanks for the advice!

[@Belinda_W]

How much water does the plant need when you water it? I always overwater.

[@AnnasViolets]

Try to water it less and less often. They grow pretty well with less water and can stay dry for a couple of days

[@nancymccardle8206]

I have a Pachira Aquatica plant . It loves it by my south window. It gets the morning and afternoon sun coming in. It is now drooping at the bottom only the rest are good. I also put it on my front porch it gets a lot of sunshine it loves that it really grows then. I water it once a week in the house and twice outside. Please let me know why it’s drooping? The leaves are not falling. Thank you.

[@AnnasViolets]

Hi Nancy, maybe the air humidity is low?

[@nancymccardle8206]

@@AnnasViolets hi thank you for replying back. Right after the afternoon sun came out it perked right up. I will keep an eye out for the humidity though thank you again. My plant was given to me she un braided it to. I left it as it was.

I hope it will grow nicely :)

Braiding the plants makes them die

[@charlenedelfin]

My pachira aqatica has been fine, but my main problem is the cats. The cats chew the leaves and jump on the whole plant, breaking some of the little branches. However, the broken branches didn't seem to be dying. The leaves remained normal and the plant produced additional leaves. But things changed when I started misting. After two days of misting, the leaves of the broken branches are turning yellow and the healthy leaves have begun wilting. I'm confused about what could be the real problem. Is it the cats or the misting? Or is it watering? I'm not sure if I've been overwatering or underwatering. Right now, one half of the pot has dry soil and the other half is completely moist.

Get video. I need to water a little less. Glad I found you. Will subscribe to learn more. Tfs cheers

Awesome! Thank you so much for subscribing, Victoria!

[@sammybanany3773]

i've had a money tree for maybe a week now and one side of it has some perky, happy leaves but the other side's leaves are really droopy, theyre all just clumped together and i'm really not sure of why. I think thats just how it grew but i believe that the leaves covering the others beneath them arent letting them get optimal sunlight ? i dont really know. What can i do for those droopy leaves ? :[

[@AnnasViolets]

Are the leaves drooping on maybe only one stem? Maybe that stem is getting rotten. I would suggest that you take the plant out of the pot and check the roots if they are rotten or not. Slightly squeeze the stems, maybe the stem is rotten too

[@sammybanany3773]

thank you Anna :] what should i do if i find rotten stems or roots ?

[@surjitvirdi4208]

What kind soil I should buy for Money Tree

[@AnnasViolets]

I have all links in the description of the video 💜💚

[@Corrigan65_]

Iridescent light for 2 hours a day was what was recommended. I couldn't find an iridescent bulb at Menards. I got a Stonepoint low heat output full spectrum grow bulb. Money tree likes swamps? Mist it with humidifier. It seems to be doing good. In addition to indirect sunlight I bask it for 2 hours in this light. Is this light good?

[@als9633]

I can't find ANY helpful guides about the anatomy of the plant. I need help with my money tree. What is a bud? What is a stem? What is a branch? What is a trunk? Because of that I believe i cut my healthy money tree the wrong way and it makes me sad.

[@slimlim03ify]

How do you fix problem 9?? You talked about it and it makes sense but didn’t provide a solution. I ALWAYS have this issue. I’m afraid of over watering or under watering. This is my 3rd money tree and don’t want to Kill it :(

[@samararobertson9027]

I just got three from a family member... the two look in good condition but the biggest one has a few yellow leaves, which isnt my biggest concern as it also has white spots... im not sure what the spots are and was wondering if you knew anything about that and if so id appreactiate some advice 😊

[@christophelanguedoc6398]

Merci pour ta vidéo 👍 Je savais pas mal de choses que tu as dites, mais pas toutes. J'ai perdu pendant l'hiver quelques feuilles sur les tiges de mon Pachira, question: est-ce que de nouvelles tiges vont repousser là où il manque les tiges tombées ? Ou alors il faut que je coupe la tige pour qu'une nouvelle pousse ? D'avance merci pour ta réponse 👍

Why are my plants leaves dying? I received it as a gift from my granddaughter when it was very small. It's grown pretty tall but the leaves are falling. What can I do to stop them from falling?

[@satoyaauthorlee4513]

I but the dead leafs and trimmings in the pot and they break down and the plant looks so healthy don’t know if it’s just my weird practice or if it has some real use but I believe it’s doing a little something

[@AnnasViolets]

🌸 Thanks for watching

[@jordynbrown5549]

It helps return the nutrients to the soil that were used to make the leaves.

[@heatherwoods5703]

That makes sense, but it can also attract insects. If you're not seeing bugs, then maybe you're fine.

[@felixquo2175]

how come a tree cannot get a direct sunlinght? aren't tree supposed to be the tallest plant compare to shrub or bushes and so they physically they are adapt to tolerate direct sunlight?

[@AnnasViolets]

Hey Felix, the trees grow in different climates. Some trees are the tallest covering other trees, so that get indirect sunlight. Also, in hot climates and in climates with very high air humidity, the effect of direct sunlight is totally different - sometimes it is beneficial, sometimes it's burning the leaves

[@BeccaSmith124]

I kept on outside all summer in direct sunlight. No problems. Grew big. In autumn and winter, I bring it and it's in window with direct light & sun if a sunny day. No problems

[@SakshamJain-lj4sb]

One thing i learned from growing pachira aquatica, literally never water the plant. Do it maybe once a month in winter and twice a month in summer. Underwater is standable but never get it overwatered

Hi there my money tree looks good in spring but now fall try to give new leaves but they turn brown and die so don't know if it's some kind of disease, if you can help pls

[@emanabdalla6398]

Dear Sir, İ have this plant since long time, she was growing very nicely, bright shining leaves. But suddenly the leaves start falling easly and rest of the leaves with new generated or newly grown start to fauld or twist inside additionally a sticky or light glued surface, colorless on the leaves very noticeable even though still new leaves and many new branches still created. Your advice is very thankful and very appreciated.
