Pachira aquatica - Money Tree

We can only offer in-store collection of this product.

Pachira aquatica, better known as the Money Tree, is a symbol of luck, prosperity, and all-around good vibes. With its glossy palmate leaves and often braided trunk, it brings structure and tropical style to any room. Super low maintenance and happy in a range of light conditions, it’s a perfect gift plant — or a treat for your own thriving era.

Plant Care
Light:
Loves bright, indirect light, but can handle medium light too. Keep it out of harsh sun to avoid crispy tips.

Watering:
Let the soil dry out between waterings. Water less in winter, and always empty saucers after watering to avoid soggy roots.

Temperature:
Warm and steady wins the race. Happy between 18–26°C, and not a fan of chills — keep above 12°C and away from draughts.

Potting:
Our A Sandy Loam mix is ideal — airy and free-draining with just the right touch of moisture retention to keep those roots content.

Hot tips:
Rotate regularly to keep its canopy even. Loves a bit of humidity but doesn’t demand it. Braided trunks are decorative — new growth won’t be braided unless you do it manually!

Pet Friendly: No
