Pot soil selection: When cultivating a money tree, you need to choose a suitable pot soil based on its growth habits. First of all, its root system is not developed, so you can choose a shallower flowerpot with good air permeability. The soil should also be loose and fertile, with good drainage and air permeability. It can be prepared by mixing garden soil, leaf mold soil and coarse sand, and adding a small amount of compound fertilizer to increase nutrients.

Water and fertilizer management: The money tree prefers moisture. Whenever you observe that the soil in its pot is dry, water it in time and pay attention to controlling the amount of water. In addition, you can water a little more when the temperature is high in summer and during the vigorous growth period, but less in winter and for newly planted small plants. In terms of fertilization, Money Tree prefers fertilizers and has a relatively large demand for fertilizers. Therefore, pay attention to applying enough base fertilizer when repotting it every spring. From May to September, when the plant growth is relatively strong, fertilizer should be applied every half month. You can use decomposed liquid fertilizer.

Suitable temperature: Money tree is suitable for growing in temperatures between 20 and 30 degrees. It is resistant to high temperatures, but is more sensitive to cold. If the temperature is lower than ten degrees in winter, it must be moved to a warm place for maintenance in time, and must be kept warm.

Repot: In order to ensure a suitable growth environment for the plant, it needs to be repotted every one or two years or when the nutrients in the soil are exhausted. You can choose to repot it in spring, and you can also prune its branches and leaves to promote the germination of new branches.

Pruning: When the money tree grows too fast, it needs to prune its branches and leaves in a timely manner to prevent some branches from growing too fast and affecting the overall beauty. You can also change its shape appropriately to improve its ornamental value.

Prevention and control of pests and diseases: Money trees are more susceptible to root rot and leaf blight. Pests are mainly caused by the larvae of the sugarcane flat moth, which needs to be prevented in time. If pests and diseases occur, they must be treated promptly to avoid excessive impact on plant growth.
