Know before you buy
No, this plant is not considered pet-friendly. It is best to keep it in a room that your cats or dogs cannot access.
The Money Tree prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, or in very dark corners where growth will slow significantly.
Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely before watering again. Because it is sensitive to overwatering, ensure the pot has proper drainage and never let the plant sit in standing water.
The braided trunk is a permanent feature created when the plant is young. While the plant will continue to grow new leaves and stems upward, the braided section itself will thicken but will not change its braided structure.
Yes, the Money Tree is known for its air-purifying qualities. Like many foliage plants, it helps filter common indoor toxins, making it a functional choice for bedrooms or home offices.
