This is a very timely video as I just rescued a friend's money tree from root rot! They had it in a self-watering pot that was keeping the soil super moist. And the pot was like 4x too big! Repotted it into a smaller pot with a super chunky mix. I hope it now can thrive for them!
WAIT! It's 3:30 a.m. and I have been strolling, browsing, and wrecking my past hour of nerve, looking for Money Tree 101. All of a sudden you give me an applaudable 😮 30 sec intro, that took my breath away. No bull, real shyt 😂😂😂
I am thrilled to say how thankful I am to have found your youtube channel!! Finally someone who can communicate in a direct manner without boring me to tears. You have such a kind and calm demeanor and it seems to be authentic. You also are nice looking and even though looks should not matter, they do. Most importantly I find your way of explaining things easy to follow. Your doing a fantastic job, keep it up!
I have 2 potted money trees. One that's single, & one that is braided. Both are outside, except for really cold temps, but they spend the majority in full sun. Just thought I'd share that🙏😊
Thank you for this video, great information as I'm finding my money tree not so "easy" to care for lol. What does it mean if the leaves are getting see through?
I see a bunch of people saying to water somewhat frequently but in my experience these plants have thrived the most when I was letting the soil dry out completely, I water like once a month and they seem to love that, I also mist the leaves throughout the day
I want to take a cutting since my money tree is getting to the ceiling . After cutting the stem on an angle, do i need to sit it in wster to create roots, or directly in the soil, 2 nodes down. I also saw someone add honey to the base of the cutting. Is that necessary?
I've killed about 5 of these! Everyone talks about how easy it is but mine always end up dying on me- it's so frustrating!! I have so many plants but I just can't get the hang of this one.
Thank you for all of this info. I love your channel and I’m a new subscriber. I’m a plant lover and I’d love to know..:Where did you get all your plant shelves?
I have that same tree maybe same distributor like exactly the same pot and nursery pot stuck in the white pot, I will probably repot with some better draining soil mix thanks a ton I haven’t seen any fungus nats 🙏🏽
Thanks for this. We got a money plant and it is struggling. I'm pretty sure we have been doing ALL the wrong things for it (we are new to house plants). I'm hoping I can nurse it back to health. We were drastically underwatering it, it was getting a mixture of very low light to direct light too. Lol ouch. I moved it and am watching our watering. If it starts to bounce back I'll repot it (it's in too bad shape to stress it out by repotting now I think).
Fun and informative Money Tree video, Ashley! Many thanks. For several years I’ve been placing my Money Tree outside from mid Spring until early Fall, weather permitting, here in Charlotte and he loves it. 🥰. As long as he gets the basics he’s a happy camper. Very enjoyable video to watch, as always. You’re spoiling us! 👌🪴🥰
Low humidity, overwatering, temperature, too much light, and sometimes the yellowing is normal in nature like aging. You can cut off the yellow leaves so new ones can grow.
I feel like the clear pots could be a problem. Roots don't like light. When the roots come in contact with the outside lights when they hit the edge of a clear pot they will damp off/die.
I live in so florida, mine is outside in full sun, 100 degrees and humidity. It is growing like crazy with a strong trunk. The one I have in the shade on the porch is not growing as fast and it's very fragile.
Mosquito bit tea really stinks. I quit using it. I let the soil get dry, use peroxide with water and the yellow sticky things. After 2 months they are gone. 😊
these videos confuse me, i have a money tree with drooping leafs but youre saying it needs more water but another video said it needs less water. help! lol dont want it to die. #firsttimeplantowner
For Fungus nats i take out the fungus soil and sprinkle cinnamon on top of the soil, and no more fungus or nats

I just wanted to tell you that because of you, I went to Horroks in Michigan. All I can say is is OMG! Thanks for sharing. It was awesome!

This was really helpful. I just came across your channel. As Im new to house plants and garden.
Your insight about the thinnes of the leaves made me think also in the context about my bonsai. Thank you for your great insights
My money tree is now shoulder high and really spread out. New growth often. It’s really doing well
Very well explained! Thanks 🙏

Same way I grow mine and it is beautiful 😍
Great video. You answered many questions for me. Except pruning and braiding. I need to know more about that.
I want to take a cutting since my money tree is getting to the ceiling . After cutting the stem on an angle, do i need to sit it in wster to create roots, or directly in the soil, 2 nodes down.

I leave them next to the window so they get lights and never water them till the soil is bone dry
Also where to keep the pots immediately after repotting? Directly under grow light or should be kept somewhere in shade ?
Also you dint show the watering after repotting. So no need to water then ?

so helpful!
Im about to head to Lowe’s to purchase a money tree.
How do I have to wait till I repot it?
My money tree - 2 trunks died off and I’m left with only one. Thoughts?

So you used only the substrate from the cover or did you add any potting mix along with the substrate as you mentioned initially in the video ?
Definitely do take the tape off when you get these! I’ve lost branches before I realized it was taped. It caused root rot, I was so sad
They also often have rubber bands tied up in the roots when you buy them
Can you please tell me why mine has Yellowing leaves and what to do to Stop this
Low humidity, overwatering, temperature, too much light, and sometimes the yellowing is normal in nature like aging. You can cut off the yellow leaves so new ones can grow.
I use a wooden stick or a knitting needle to test my soil.
I feel like the clear pots could be a problem. Roots don't like light. When the roots come in contact with the outside lights when they hit the edge of a clear pot they will damp off/die.
If you have the clear pot in a decorative pot it shouldn’t be an issue :)
Thank you!🤍
Just bought mine she I repot mine right away or should I wait awhile
Wait
What does it mean that a plant gets "leggy"?
Will putting the money in damage the money tree?
I can grow plants. That said, I’ve had a few that died including the three money trees. I find they are very sensitive to watering and or light
I have 1with six and seven leaves
Nice dear ❤
Thanks
Thank u for sharing
Never knew could use Mosquito bits like that
Isn't this the same plant as the Malabar Chestnut?
Nice 👍 sharing tips good 👍😊
I bought the same plant and all my leave are off and all is left is the branches , is it over, or does it still have life ?
if they all fell off when/after moving/repotting its completely normal! dont change ur money tree location a lot so u can prevent it in the future.

advantages of money tree

Mosquito bit tea really stinks. I quit using it.
I let the soil get dry, use peroxide with water and the yellow sticky things. After 2 months they are gone. 😊
Can you tell me the measurements for your mixture please?
Yes plz share!
SHARE!
The rubber band and the tape will slowly kill your money tree. It takes years for the tape to breakdown if it breaks down at all.
Money trees can have 5 or 6 leaves. Mine has both 5 and 6 leaves on the same plant !
I always wanted to buy one my self but people keep telling me that they’re supposed to be gifted is that true ? 😅😅
honestly u can buy it for urself it doesnt rlly matter
But i thought generally speaking roots didn't like exposure to light.
these videos confuse me, i have a money tree with drooping leafs but youre saying it needs more water but another video said it needs less water. help! lol dont want it to die. #firsttimeplantowner
