Oh my, Nell...I can't keep my eyes off those Ponytail palms! Incredible! I'm in Michigan, if only!
Mishelle Walker I’m in Michigan also!
Hi I have a money tree she just grows like crazy I keep her in the window water every 3 or 4 days . She is super tall wish I could post picture . Any how thanks for your tips on replanting
Hi there Nell! I found you on Google! My mom gave us a money tree last June for our anniversary, and it came time for repotting. I did that today, but since it's my first money tree, I wanted to make sure I did it right. I'm up in Canada and just used some regular soil, but it seems like a pretty happy little tree to me! I've subscribed to your channel because your personality is so great!
My pachira developed root rot, so I did a radical propogation (I cut the trunk an inch above where the healthy plant tissue met the necrotic tissue) and placed the trunk into a cup of water. I plan to bonsai it once the roots have grown in.
David - Interesting. I've never done that. Let us know how long it takes for the roots to form. Nell
i’ve been looking into a money tree plant for a while and just got one! this video helped a lot with additional information I can use as the years go on.
Followed exactly what she said and now he’s growing like crazy!! 💛 thank you for the great video!!
Also I have a bigger money tree and it got fungus gnats . It was driving me crazy ! I repotted it and they were still flying around . Well I tried the apple cider vinegar and soap mix ... that did not help at all. I didn’t want to water my money tree again since I had already repotted him and I could tell how stressed he was . So I took a chance and did the hydrogen peroxide treatment and it worked !! It killed all the gnats. At first I thought it didn’t work because there was some flying around for a week or 2 . But I also added a layer of sand and pebbles on top of the sand so the gnats could no longer enter the soil . So I’m down to 4 trunks on my 4 foot money tree .
I've just found your channel and I'm totally obsessed! You're very knowledgeable and fun to watch. Thank you for the awesome video!
Mine is about 4 feet and still in the pot it came in with rocks glued to the top - I've been putting it off since I'm going to have to break the pot to get it out. But, I think it's time! Thanks for the motivation!
I just got a money tree. Thanks for the info, didn’t really know what to do with it.
Hi Jan - They're popular, just like the Lucky Bamboo. I'll do a care video in 6 months or so. Nell
@@JoyUsGarden Hey jan I just bought a money tree as well can you post links of the stuff you used in your soil mix
Yay, Tucson! I miss the Old Pueblo!! The coffee filter is so genius.
Hello. I should have watched this video before I re-potted my plant. Now I'm nervous. This tree is very important to me as it was my son's. He passed away 8 years ago. :( I treasure this plant. My plant was about to tip over as well. My tree is probably 4 ft tall. It has grown 3 feet since I got it. It is an indoor plant. I re-potted it into a much much larger pot in October so I hope and pray it survives. Thank you for your video.
Do you have an update! How is your tree doing?
I've been wanting to get another one of these. It's been quite a while since I've owned one, so it's on the list for my collection now. You're always so sweet to watch. Love this channel💟
Thank you again! I haven't grown one of these since I lived in San Francisco. I'll see how it does in the desert. Nell
@@JoyUsGarden I can't wait to follow along and see the updates!! 😃🌻 Thanks Nell!
Thank you for the video! I have a question - my leaves also have some yellow spots as seen in the video around 11:50. Is that caused by too much sun ?
I’m in north Florida and I kept my money tree for about a year on the patio and it had no issues. It started getting cold so I wanted to bring it inside and at the same time I transplanted it into a bigger pot, but now I’m loosing the older leaves. The plant is about 4-5 feet tall. The fresh leaves seem to be doing fine, it’s just dripping the bottom ones. I think it’s a double shock from bringing inside and repotting. Any suggestions on how I can help it deal with stress? The plant has sentimental value more than anything…..
thank you

lol I found this more entertaining than I thought it'd be, love your vibe.
Thanks for the video, I recently got a "money tree" and just wanted how to take better care of them and whats their history. I call her vicky !
Thanks so much for sharing. You always have such great information for all of us💟
Oh thank you Stacey! I just subscribed to your channel. Nell
@@JoyUsGarden Oh Nell😀 That means a whole lot coming from a gardener like yourself!! I've been watching you for yrs now and always love what you have to show 🌻🌻 Your plants are so outstanding😉
Thank you for a detailed info on the Money tree plant. You are awesome Nell! 👍💕
Should I take the tape off that is at the bottom? (Black tape in the video)
Thans for ur video! I think u helped me realize my money tree needs a pot with more drainage holes
Love that area. Plants create a special atmosphere :)
Very nice repotting. It looks great in her new home! Good luck with it and happy growing. Do you have a string of heart? Can you do a care tip video for it please.
Thank you! I just subscribed to your channel. I have a few videos on SOH. Here's one, post & video: www.joyusgarden.com/string-of-hearts-or-rosary-vine/ Nell
This was great, I loved the video mainly because of the passion you put into it. I can tell you really love your plants!
Thanks Nelle! Glad to know the potting mix is important
I love this video because my daughter gave me a ‘money tree’ last year and I think it is time to repot! I do have one question...what do you do to the leaves that start to yellow or get holes in them??
I wanted to know the same
If the leaves are yellow but not brittle then it’s being overwatered. If the leaves are dry then it would,of course need water. I hope I helped without being intrusive.
Thank you for this . I had a problem with this plant I think I watered it too much ( Oregon is my state) I poured water onto the trunks . After that I noticed the trunks got soft. I tried repotting it and used hydrogen peroxide / water mix to clean the roots to help stop root rot , but it did not help . I believe I found a solution.. ice cubes . And mist spray the leaves and only every few weeks. Depending where you live and weather . I’m in Oregon so I only mist spray every week . And one 1 -2 ice cube on top soil (not touching trunk) depending the size of the money tree . Really this plant doesn’t need to be watered much . Winter time can go 1 month without water ......
So were you able to save your plant or did you have to start over with a new one? Mine has root rot :(
I'm in Oregon and my money tree is going gangbusters. I water it whenever the pot feels light, as in it must be on the dry side. Sometimes I just pour water into the pot from above and other times I thoroughly water it from the bottom. Also, I typically use room temperature water, or if straight from the faucet, I tray to have it be luke warm. And btw, it's never seen direct sun, it hides right behind closed blinds in an east-facing window. I've had it at least 3 years and it's probably tripled in size since.
@@dkrusee is your money tree deep into the pot, in the middle, or closer to the top?
Very helpful! Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for sharing madam, i love money tree, for d reason it brings good luck and fortune.
Am in Texas, can I find the soil and materials you used?? Also do you keep the black rubber bands on the bottom on and the ones on the top on as well?
Thank you for sharing, but i missed something...i saw you putting something like a paper at the bottom..can you clarify for me ..any who understand please help me🙏
In a bright light,this plant grows very fast..mine is triple in size just couple of months.
I just moved from Tucson to Flag last summer! I wish I would've come across your channel sooner :-) I'll keep an eye out for your videos on houseplants and ways to keep them humidified (oye, it's dry up here too!).
Thank you ..I need to repot my tree this is great information. Wish me luck i do it right.
Hi thank you for your impo
About planing.
Hi there - how do we know when it's a good time to repot a money tree? What am I looking for in the plant?
You need to remove the black plastic near the base soon, or it will eat into the tree.
Also, it's not used in bonsai a lot. It has large leaves and is not appropriate. It also has all sorts of other difficulties, such as tending to grow up no matter how many times you prune it. A few people are trying to make bonsai out of it, but it's not easy. I will try too, I think it will work in groups of five or more.
You could've confused it with Schefflera arboricola (Dwarf umbrella tree), which is used in bonsai a lot.
How often do you water it? Just curious.
Do all money trees have tape or a rubber band underneath the soil? I’ve heard it can strangle it and I’m worried that it’ll suffocate it before I’m ready to repot next year.
Can you show me how to repot a ponytail plant can I use the same steps from the money tree for the ponytail?
I re-planted mine in a big pot and then watched this after, I was also worried that I couldn’t re-plant with the tree with the tape on and was worried that it should have been removed. So I don’t need to remove that tape then?
Thank you !! I love it. Super helpful. ♡ she's great.
Whooo 57 degrees! Chilly! I am so sorry for you guys. I am still in my flip flops at that temp. I don’t wear heavy slippers like that until it is freezing! LOL
i have a money tree and i live in NY. Every winter the tree looses its leaves. All of them and it's just sticks and then in spring the new leaves grow. I can't figure out why is that happening. Any suggestions to what i should do?
What about removing that band from the base? I've heard it can be an issue, and some people remove it. What say you?
Thanks a lot, for your valuable info..& cheerful aura.. 💕
Sweet, simple, and to the point!
Thank you so much for this video. I live in Tucson, where do you buy your mix components?
You're so pleasant to watch! Thanks for the video
This is an awesome tutorial! Thank you so much!
I’ve had a money tree in straight potting soil for a few months (newbie gardener here) and while the tree is definitely alive and has new leaves coming now, I still think I should maybe repot it into better soil for it? But I’m also somewhat afraid of damaging it by repotting it again
Did you ever repot? Pls update me since I’m doing the same 😊
Another awesome vid!!! Always enjoy em :)
Thank you! Money Tree care video coming your way in summer of fall. Nell
Thank you, so very much for this video!
First one LOL. I like you Nell, vibrant personality!
I try. For me, I'd rather learn from someone with a little spark rather than someone who drones on! Nell
@@JoyUsGarden I love the spark in people and always look for it. The rest is a no no.
Hi there, was wondering if I could use bonsai jack soil for a money tree? Ty
can bonsai mix be used for this plant it's like wood chip thanks.
A true beautiful soul ❤
Can you please help me with mine. I made the mistake of repotting it in general potting soil for houseplants. The overall health has been okay over the past half a year. I just have to be careful with watering it , but it just makes me so anxious knowing I can easily get root rot bc of the type of soil I used. Some leaves have browning and some are shriveled or curly. So I get really confused if it’s overwatering or underwatering. Should I repot it again using your mixture? The last time I repotted it was a month ago. Bc I just wanted to give it some new soil. But hadn’t seen this vid to better advice me on the soil mixture.
Could I make my own charckle burning pine?
Oh I m so happy to find you ! I have a small money tree and it seems that some small bugs has been biting their leaves. I don't have bugs or rodents in my house so not sure what's going on. I have followed instructions on watering and light exposure. I hope you can come up with some suggestions about what it could be. I just subscribed on your channel. Thank you !
I'm having the same problem. Did you find a solution?
Love all your videos!! Such a joy, love my money tree plant haha
What did you put first in your pot?
This video should have been 2 minutes long.
Then find a different video. I enjoyed her information and stories!
@@maisiecumberland464 it doesn't change the fact that with some editing I could liked it as well. I'm sure as a content creator they can use this feedback to be more inclusive. Just a thought.
My brother has a very sad money tree and I've been tasked with rehabbing it, so this video was very helpful!
You don't mention anything about the tape. Should it be removed when repotting? Thanks
my leaves are all brown I trans planted it and used a newer better soil to help it or do something to help but I think its the water our water here has lots of chlorine
Use rain water or bottled water! Never use faucet water
Why is the pot with ponytail palm covered with fabric? Is it to protect from cold temperatures at night?
Hi - Yes, we've had a few evenings when the temps have dipped to around 28F. The fabric is to protect the base of the Burro's Tail Sedums. The PP can handle those temps just fine. Nell

If you have just purchased a money tree how long do you wait to repot it? I’m not sure if the soil it came in is great for it and it is certainly not spring time where I live.
One of my 3 little tree trunks are dying and I want to remove it. Any advice for repotting with only the 2 healthy ones?
Hi I have a 1.55 pachira aquat there sticks on one side on the other side there leaves I need help
I just bought my money tree today, how long should I wait before repotting it?
Repot it when u see the roots start showing out of the nursery pot..its generally recommended to wait a bit for it to get used to the new place, its very stressful for plants to move and be repotted.
reported. Just relaised your comment is a whole yr old lol, how's the money 💰 tree 🌳?
Oops just relaised your comment is a whole yr old lol, im sure u have repotted it by now😆 how's the money 💰 tree 🌳?
Banana Fana Lets just say I do not have a green thumb 😂 but I was really upset that it died :(
It is helpful what is money tree for your house
Thank you so very much!!😊
How often should I water my money tree?
Hello is fertilizer the same thing as compost? Can I add fertilizer to my money tree?
wonderful thanks very much for sharing I have a money plant too
such a nice video keep it up!
What's the name of the long tree on the right behind you?
I just subscribed, love your channel! Appreciate if you can make a follow up video on how to properly care (water/fertilise) a money tree. Thank you so much.
Mine is already about 6 ft. But it is looking sad. I’ve never repotted it 😩
Can i use npk fertilizer for my money tree plant?
Thank you so much
Once I repot mine into a pot like that can I insert it into a decorative pot? Or would that defeat the purpose of the drain holes? Thank you in advance!!
Hey! I know it’s probably way too late but when I have decorative pots, I usually leave the plant in a pot w drainage holes. I take that pot out when it comes to watering and let water drain completely then place it back in the decorative pot :) hope that helps
l like the big plant near you what is the name l have a money tree ty
Nice and cool
Omgoodness the coffee filter is genius!
Hello!! My children and husband bought me a plant back in March. I am to believe it is a Money tree?? I think?? Im not a big person on plants. Although i love to keep them big and beautiful. And love to grow them. Water them, and keep them alive. So.. I'm begging all for help!! I hope to leave a picture for someone to tell me what i can do with this?? I believe its healthy.. its beautiful. Although when They purchased this the trunk was big and bulky. And hasnt changed much. Ive heard of braiding but how?? How am i able to send a picture to those people to help me???
What is your crafter site.. I also love art and craft ing?
Do you Have A Pony Tail Plant
Can I just repot with regular miracle grow potting mix?
Ευχαριστώ έχω γραφτεί και θα ήθελα σας παρακαλώ. Να τα λέτε και στα Ελληνικά
Very informative👍
How do you make it twist?
I've had my money tree for about 5 years and its losing all its leaves. Has been for a long time and now it looks pretty bare. The leaves grow large and then turn yellow / brown starting from the tip and then fall off. Judging by the number of leaves it has left, I don't think it will make it through the next winter. Any idea what the issue is?
Im having that issue with my new money tree, I’m thinking I need to repot it as maybe the soil is no good. And give it fertilizer food.
Do you make your own compost?
No I don't Jorge. I did in Santa Barbara but not here in Tucson. I buy organic compost produced here in Tucson. Nell
How often does it need to be watered ?
Do I have to keep the ties on the plant?
I prefer not to. The plant grows and will likely be choked by the ties
How’s the Pachira Aquatica doing now?
When do you suggest removing the ties?
Hi Stephanie - I cut the black tape at the bottom off (you can see that in the blog post) but left the red ribbon on at the top. 2 reasons: the stems are still forming into a braid & the red ribbon signifies good luck & good fortune. I'm not messing with that! Nell
