How to care for a money plant bonsai
An article provides a detailed introduction on how to care for a money plant bonsai and explains the differences between money plants and prosperity trees in the field of green plants and flowers. Next, the editor will introduce it to everyone.
The climate in spring is relatively dry, and many people choose to keep a pot of green plants at home to improve the air quality and also beautify the home. Indoor plants not only need to be beautiful and pleasing to the eye but also easy to care for. Like the following five ornamental plants, they are called "money plants" by many gardening enthusiasts. They are not only aesthetically pleasing but also have a very good meaning, making them ideal for keeping at home for display.
Qilin Palm
Also known as Jade Qilin, Qilin Palm has a unique and majestic shape. Many people like to keep it at home, believing that this plant not only has a high ornamental value but also brings wealth and protects the home. It is also very easy to care for and does not require much management.
Qilin Palm is a highly drought-resistant plant, storing a large amount of water in its succulent stems and leaves, allowing it to grow even in extremely dry conditions. When growing in a pot at home, it is important to control watering and not let the potting soil stay too moist for long periods, as this can easily cause root and stem rot. During the growing period, applying some slow-release fertilizer granules in the pot can meet the plant's growth needs.
Prosperity Tree
The Prosperity Tree is a very familiar ornamental plant to everyone. Not only does it have a pleasant name with a wealth-attracting meaning, but it also has lush branches and leaves that remain green throughout the year, refreshing and pleasing to the eye when kept at home.
Although the Prosperity Tree is very popular, many people find it not easy to care for, often experiencing issues like yellow leaves and rotting roots. The causes of these problems are often due to improper care, such as excessive watering, which can affect the normal respiration of the roots, leading to root rot and yellow leaves over time. Also, it cannot be placed in strong sunlight; this plant prefers a semi-shaded or scattered light environment. Direct exposure to strong sunlight can easily cause yellow leaves. Therefore, it is important to control watering and place it in a well-ventilated semi-shaded environment.

Jade Tree
Jade Tree is also a multi肉 plant that many people enjoy growing. It has an ancient trunk and green leaves. After a few years of growth, it can be shaped into a beautiful tree-shaped bonsai, with the plant blooming with numerous flowers each year, making it highly ornamental.
Jade Tree is very suitable for those who don't have time to care for flowers. It has a strong vitality, is drought-resistant, and easy to care for. The potting soil can be mixed with garden soil and decomposed leaf soil or a universal nutrient soil. Watering should be done when the soil feels dry to the touch and wet during the growing season. Applying some compound fertilizer or organic fertilizer and allowing it to get plenty of sunlight will make the plant thrive. Later, pruning and shaping can be done based on the tree shape, and it can become a sturdy old-stump bonsai in three to five years.
Bamboo Palm
Bamboo Palm has become very popular in recent years as a large-leaf plant. Its large and graceful leaves remain green throughout the year, making it an attractive addition to indoor spaces. It also has a significant air-purifying effect. If your home has just been renovated, keeping a Bamboo Palm can help absorb harmful gases.
