An introduction to the green plant and flower aspect of how to plant a money tree and the cultivation and breeding methods of the money tree is as follows:

The money tree, also known as马拉巴栗 (Malabar chestnut), is a perennial evergreen small tree. Its trunk is relatively robust and thick, with hand-shaped leaves that are compound leaves, consisting of five to seven small leaves. The leaves are long elliptical in shape, and the branches and leaves remain green throughout the four seasons.

Due to its name, it symbolizes happiness and fortune, and many friends enjoy keeping a pot of money tree at home. Large potted money trees can be placed in stores, while small potted ones can be placed on office desks or computer tables, both of which are quite nice. There are both hydroponic and potted varieties.

However, potted money trees are显然 (obviously) easier to grow and care for than those grown in water, with better growth. Some friends say that when they first bought the small potted money tree, every leaf was lush and shiny green, with very lush branches and leaves.

How to plant a money tree

First of all, we need to understand some of the growth habits of the money tree. There are three things the money tree loves that must be met for it to maintain green leaves, have more leaves, and continuously sprout new branches and leaves for smoother growth.

1. The money tree prefers a warm growing environment.

In fact, the suitable temperature for its growth is relatively high, so it is not recommended to keep a money tree in areas with very low temperatures. Its growing temperature is between 25 to 32 degrees Celsius and it is not cold-resistant.

Therefore, in winter, it must be kept in a warm indoor environment for maintenance, with the temperature maintained above 10 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, water should be controlled and not excessive, with the potting soil a bit dry, which is safer.
