I. Provide appropriate shading
Many flower friends maintain their money trees on balconies. It's not that you can't maintain a money tree on a balcony. If you want to keep it there, you still need to provide some shading, as too much sunlight can easily sunburn the plant, causing the leaves to drop easily. Therefore, the placement of the money tree is very important.
Solution:
Maintaining it in an environment of 20~25℃ is better, such as in the living room. If you want to keep it in the bedroom, make sure the bedroom is ventilated and has some scattered light, so the leaves of the money tree will be greener, and the roots will also become more developed.

II. Control pests and diseases
When maintaining a money tree, improper care methods can cause the plant to have pests. In this case, the leaves of the money tree may drop, and the plant is not healthy, so we need to handle it properly.
Solution:
If the money tree's leaves drop due to pest infestation, we need to remove all the leaves with diseases and pests, and then spray some insecticide. Even if all the leaves have dropped, flower friends don't need to worry because it has a strong vitality, and the money tree can grow new branches and leaves with normal watering.
III. Improve the environment
The last point is that the maintenance environment is not ventilated. Some flower friends place their money trees in enclosed spaces, such as in the living room and then closing the doors and windows tightly. This makes the money tree prone to yellow leaves and subsequent leaf drop. Some leaves may look fine, but they fall off when touched.
