Pachira Aquatica - 170cm
The Pachira Aquatica, also known as the money tree, is a beautiful houseplant that has its roots in the tropical wetlands of Central and South America. The nickname "money tree" comes from an ancient tradition in the Far East, where it is believed that the glossy, palmate leaves attract prosperity and good luck. With its striking braided trunk and lush, dark green leaves, this plant is a real eye-catcher that adds a tropical flair to any space, from modern apartments to cozy offices.
Care & tips Pachira Aquatica - 170 cm
The Pachira Aquatica is an exceptionally low-maintenance houseplant, ideal for both novice and experienced plant lovers. This plant is undemanding: a splash of water once every three weeks is often enough to keep it happy. In the winter, when the humidity in the house often decreases due to heating, the Pachira appreciates a regular spray to keep its leaves fresh and healthy. With the right care, this tropical beauty will remain a beautiful addition to your interior for years.
Water requirement Pachira Aquatica - 170 cm
Thanks to its ability to store water in its braided stem, the Pachira Aquatica requires little water. Watering once every three weeks is usually enough. Always feel the soil before watering: if the top layer is still moist, wait a little longer. Overwatering can be damaging, so let the soil dry out thoroughly in between to keep the plant in optimum condition.
Light requirements Pachira Aquatica - 170 cm
For healthy growth, the money tree needs 3 to 5 hours of indirect sunlight daily. Place it in a bright spot, but avoid direct, bright sunlight to prevent burning of the leaves. If the plant is growing rapidly but producing few new leaves, it is probably in a spot that is too dark. Move it to a location with slightly brighter light, such as near a north- or east-facing window, to encourage growth.
Is the Pachira Aquatica - 170 cm poisonous?
Yes, the Pachira Aquatica is toxic if ingested to both humans and pets. Make sure to place this plant in a safe place, out of reach of curious children, cats or dogs, to avoid any risks. With the right precautions, this money tree can be a safe and stylish addition to your home.
