Pachira aquatica, commonly known as the Money Tree or Malabar Chestnut, is a tropical plant native to Central and South America. In cultivation, it is often styled with multiple young stems braided together while still flexible, creating the well-known Braided Money Tree form that has become a symbol of prosperity and good fortune in many cultures.

The tree produces glossy, palmate leaves, typically arranged in groups of five to seven leaflets that resemble an open hand. These bright green leaves are lush and vibrant, giving the plant a fresh, tropical look. When grown indoors, the braided trunk adds architectural interest and makes the plant particularly popular as both a decorative feature and a Feng Shui element, where it is believed to bring wealth and harmony.

Outdoors in its native range, Pachira aquatica can grow into a large tree producing edible nuts. Indoors, in its braided form, it usually reaches 1–2 metres in height, making it a manageable statement plant for homes and offices.


Braided Pachira aquatica – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light. It will tolerate some lower light but growth may slow. Avoid direct harsh sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.

Watering

Water thoroughly when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry. Ensure excess water drains away and never allow the plant to sit in water, as this can cause root rot. Overwatering is the most common issue with Money Trees. In winter, reduce watering slightly.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers 18–26°C. Keep away from draughts and protect from cold temperatures below 12°C.

  • Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity. Misting the leaves occasionally or using a humidifier will keep them looking fresh.

Soil and Potting

Use a peat-free, free-draining houseplant compost, ideally with added perlite or sand to improve aeration. Repot every 2–3 years in spring when roots outgrow the container.

Feeding

Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertiliser. Feeding is not necessary in winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune to control height and encourage branching by cutting back stems just above a node. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves to maintain the plant’s health and appearance.

Growth and Maturity

Indoors, the Braided Money Tree typically grows 1–2 metres tall. Growth is steady but not rapid, making it easy to maintain as a floor plant.

Common Issues

  • Yellowing leaves: Usually caused by overwatering.

  • Brown leaf tips: Often due to low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Leaf drop: Stress from sudden environmental changes, such as moving location or draughts.

Background and Benefits

In Feng Shui tradition, the Money Tree is associated with good fortune, prosperity, and positive energy, especially when placed in living rooms or offices. Its braided trunk is said to “trap” good luck within. Beyond cultural symbolism, it is a resilient and attractive houseplant, with air-purifying properties and a strong tropical presence.

More like a cat toy size ball. Still a good toy.
I should have paid more attention to the size as they are slightly bigger than golf balls. The ones I was looking for are identical but about the size of a grapefruit. My dachshund has one and it is her favorite ball toy. That's on me though. These are more of a cat toy size ball. These do look like they are the same material as my pups larger one which is durable and fun for her to throw and bounce. The holes make it easy for the pups to grab and run quickly or catch in mid-air. I'm not sure how other small dogs would do but these are too small to play tug-of-war with my little girl and she is definitely not as interested in them as she is with her bigger one. I think we will donate these to animal control since I am sure they have some small dogs or cats that would appreciate these more than our picky girl lol. Still a great toy but just not the size she likes.

Nice, long lasting balls.
My dog is not an aggressive chewer and solely just wants to play fetch. As a small 8lbs dog, this is the perfect size for her. Typically these will dry rot after a few years of use. We do buy these so it’s a little bit less destructive while throwing a ball inside the house.

Perfect for small dogs
These balls are perfect for small dogs. They are light weight and my dog can easily grab them. Very durable for their small teeth. No squeakers so they are quiet.

Makes my melanated skin POP!
Wow! Where has this product has been all of my life??? Up until now, I believed that dewey, glowing, buttery skin I saw on celebrities in photos and video were due to some ultra expensive product that I could not afford, but low and behold I found out that is NOT true and you can achieve that same look if you're "balling on a budget", like ME! While Vaseline, and baby oil are mainstays, sometimes you need something with a little bit more umph, sheen, and sparkle and THIS Vaseline oil does the trick and then some! One mistake I made when I first started wearing it: I didn't spend enough time rubbing it into my skin. If you don't take the time to really rub it in and allow your skin to soak it in, you will have some dry spots (i.e., areas of skin you thought you moisturized but actually missed). I now understand why makeup artists and stylists are always seen rubbing their clients legs and arms, and between pictures and takes- it's because they're making sure they get the product into the skin! That said, this is not something that you can just slap on and go. You have to really take your time and be intentional about the application. If you have a partner, roommate, spouse, or whatever, ask them to help rub it into your back. I also love putting this on after I get out of the shower and I want to wear something sexy to bed-It is a major confidence booster when you are wearing lingerie. I absolutely LOVE this product and it is the best thing I ever bought for my skin. I bought both golden hour glow and sunlit glow. The sun lit is good for a lightly glazed look but the golden hour glow is a lot more sparkly and has this gold, copper, Sheen to it - basically, it's heavier or more pigmented, but still very lightweight. It does not stain in my clothes, it is very soft and it gives my skin this glazed, sun kissed, glow that is absolutely out of this world! The oil quality is great because it's not too thick and it's not too thin and it doesn't need to be reapplied. There is virtually no scent, so it pairs well with perfume or body spray. I have a very sensitive nose, so I was a little bit concerned about a strong fragrance but it does not have that at all. It is so versatile: you can use it on feet, legs, back, chest, forearms--and a little goes a long way. This is absolutely amazing. It is much better than the previous Vaseline bronze oil that I wore that was a lot more watery and came in a pump- it just didn't do it for me. This line is more moisturizing - this glazed and glisten gel is the best thing ever! Run, do not walk, to buy this product--You won't be disappointed. It is great value for the money. 10 stars!!!!
