![Money Tree (Pachira Aquatica) Plant Care Tips & what NOT to do! [get BIG leaves!]](/img/n.gif)
I wish one day I could invite you to Iran and give you a tour of our country, that unlike what people of the world think has lots of green, and show you the beauty of it.
With love,
a fan from Caspian sea.
Unfortunately Caspian Sea does not count as a sea so Kazakhstan is the largest land locked country it should be Mongolia
This is not meant to antagonize or make anyone upset
@@duskmoss that...was not my point...
@@duskmoss what an interesting fact, thanks for sharing
I would love to be the first on your tour!
Hi Summer Rayne, I use an air can to blow off soil from my more delicate leaf plants! Don't have to get them wet and it blows excess soil right off of the leaves! :)
Mine is a big pachira tree. The flower is beautiful and it becomes "fruit" with only seeds inside.
Once the pandemic is over I would love to see series based on New Zealand’s ecosystems and plant species!
Beautiful plants! Thanks for sharing another great video with us Summer. It's always so great to see you and brush up on my plant knowledge🌱
Just bought mine last week!
It popped out huge leaves and its doing good
I have already 5 money trees. And braided one of them, so beautiful.
Am really glad showing thin video, It explains a lot to me
I lost many plants because I ignored the roots and thought that watering is fine
Thanks a lot
Thank you for always sharing your knowledge with us! ♡
Just finished repotting 5 plants, it really is a fun part of owning house plants 😁
I have plant pachira 16 years in clay pot midium pot healthy plant and is not big is like a bonsai but when pachira in soil land the pachira bigger 40 feet long I saw in my friend garden and she give me a seed I put in my clay pot now 16 years after is a live and healthy thanks Miss Summer for your educational info about plant.
What kind of seed?
such an informative video! came on my feed at the right time cause my pachira has been struggling
your videos are the best! I've missed these type of videos
You know what would be amazing? If you did a series about rehabbing plants 😊
I just repotted 5 plants yesterday because the soil was rock hard. Was terrified because I damaged one root stuck to a ball of hard earth. This is so timely.
Þý....
Personally for all tthe trouble, I would have dumped out all the old soil, washed the pot and started out fresh with a good mixture including pumice for better airation.
Beautiful sharing 🌱🌿🌿🌿
This was sweet the plants look great
Thanks, for the helpful tips!!!
I completely flood all of my plants in the sink/tub 😅 Which is a major chore; which is probably why I can’t exceed 200 😖 They’re mostly hoya, so at least I don’t have to do it too too often.
New information for plants..
👌👍🤙
So nice Plant 👌👍🌱🏡
Great video! Very Informative. Also often should I check my houseplants for pests?
I save round plastic chritsmas cookie boxes and water absolutely all of my 40+ plants in them every time they are dry and let them sit in water for a good while until it feels heavy again. So take that, peat! You ain't messing with me!!!
Beautiful tree! I heard water w some hydrogen peroxide will fix that dry soil problem 👍👍👍where the water doesn't absorb in root area👍
Hmmm...think I'll take mine outside tomorrow and do a deep inspection.
Peat free alternatives would be a good item, no one should be using peat these days, as it’s extraction release methane & we need it sequestered.
its*
coco coir works great!!!
Hahahahah. No. Climate clown strikes again
Those gloves look so good!!!
mine only has 3 leaves left. ive had it for years and it started dying when i moved. i took it out of the pot and soaked its roots in water i found there was a rubber band around them so i snipped it off and repotted it. lets see if it survives..
I watch your plant explanation in your video with interest. You are talking about uneven watering, where the plants develop unevenly. You replace part of the existing potting soil. Now you are using a closed pot, without a drainage hole in the bottom. I myself try to create a kind of semi-hydroponic culture in such pots in the closed plant pot. For example, by filling a (small) terracotta inner pot upside down on the bottom of the large pot, around it with hydro grain, something of a saucer or carrot cloth over the hydro grain so that the soil will not settle between the hydro grain. In this way I create a drainage and water buffer for the plant. This way I can water the plant more generously with larger ones in between. The excess water drains underground into the buffer. The roots can grow to the water along the sides. Roots in water usually go well, roots in continuously moist soil can suffocate and rot. The soil can now dry up until the next watering time. Sometimes I create a water fill point so that I can water the plants from below. The plant roots will then grow more naturally down to the water (buffer). I have not continued studying for this, nor am I very good at getting and keeping my plants in the best condition. It is often more careful neglect of my plants, with still reasonable results. In addition, I have made it a sport / hobby to propagate my plants through various usual or more experimental methods. Usually with varying results. Nowadays I frequently watch your videos about plant care, also many other videos from others. I sometimes get inspiration from it, I also find it relaxing and just fun to (be able to) share experiences about plants. I like to see it grow and bloom in and around the house. I often fill my windowsills with my cuttings and plants, even in the smallest corners, in the living room, bedroom, hobby room, shower and toilet, and outside under a shelter in the summer. I then dispose of many plants to other enthusiasts to create space. I only have a small number of plant species that are resistant to irregular care, are easy to propagate and recover after a lesser period. I wish you the best of luck with your inspiring plant videos. Regards, Marcel.
Watching from philippines. Wow.. Love love love.
Love you hair style!!
It's just so weird how much attention that tree gets in the West.
In the Philippines, it's a trash plant that's super common. They usually come as gifts all twirled up together with a ribbon. They grow way too quickly in a tropical climate and it gets too lanky for people.
Some plant it in the ground and it grows even faster, and people don't want to keep pruning (with machetes) so most just throw them away.
I've seen some in the streets that broke their pots and rooted in cracks in the pavement.
It's a popular indoor plant.
Wow super 🤝
Thanks
think I’m experiencing root rot. The leaves were pale green and some fell off. I inspected the bottom stems and they were wet and a light brownish color. The roots looked brown I trimmed them back and repotted in new soil. Should I water right away or let it dry out first? Any suggestions??
I have a small money tree and it seems that one of my branches has become soft when I squeeze it, what does that indicate? Does that mean that branch is dying and I need to remove that branch and repot it?
We're from louisiana and my nana has always pronounced it Kah-lan-chee so it stuck on me haha
Pronunciation is not actually only a single way sometimes there are accents that almost completely change the word
(It’s Latin)
I like saying ka lan choe
What brand soil could I use to re do my money tree? She’s just a baby
Wow your money tree has 6 leaves!! Lucky
Thanks for another great video! I have a question though: What do you do when the dried out soil seems to be one solid block in which the root ball seems to be cemented?
I got a plant from a store where this is the case, and I need to change the soil, but it does not seem possible without destroying the roots...
Can someone help me, my money tree is really dried base at the bottom like some sort of disease. That’s spreading upward, what should I do?
hmm kinda Intresting.
My Moneytree was arround 1 m when i got him back 4 years ago.
This spring he starts with 2,5 m hight.
He stands in my living room, east window (full hight window), growing like hell.
the top of the plant alrady stoped on my room cailing. and he is big, bushy and dark green xD
Hare Krishna. Wow so informative video 🎉❤🎉❤🎉
Pinch top out from the kalanchoe. Helps to branch out.
I had a money plant and all the leaves fell out...can i put in water😢
i put three pachira cuttings in water. it's been two months, no roots at all, but since the first week, some kind of white crystal like scales have covered the part in water. no such thing on the mother plant that's in soil. anyone know what it is?
Where did you get your gloves?
Pot seems huge for that plant. Does pot size matter?
yeah its matter. idk english well but I try my best . there are more soil in big pots. when there is more soil they keeps more water. little plants drinks little water. keeping more water cause root damage rotting.
Good choice-money tree- because mine is recovering from pest damage from last year,getting new growth now but it is not near to impeccable yet. I will take a look at the roots again but doesn't it bother a plant to be uprooted? Thanks.
How did you take care of the bugs?
@@MoonBeamLight Wasn't fun. Used a solution of warm water, 3 or so drops of liquid dish detergent and some drops of baby oil. Shake while it is warm and use later. It was sad but I sprayed the heck out of the bugs and plant... and cut off a lot of affected leaves. It looked pretty bare but it was summer. I put it outside in indirect sunlight and it got new tiny leaves. I sprayed it again and removed more leaves which the bugs wrecked, as needed. I also washed the plant with the shower head in the tub. It's coming back now with a plant light inside, but slowly. There are lots of good videos about that. Mine had spider mites. Try more Summer Rayne videos 'Plant one on me' or Planting Mindfully, Miss Orchid Girl but there are so many which are good on pest control. I didn't want to use poisons because of my pets.
Beautiful love you beautiful
I don’t see the problem. I have a huge aquatica here. With two leaves. ... two leaves! So went and checked the braided plant only to find all except one of the barks were dead. So now I’ve one very weird looking plant with two leaves.
Hey Summer,
Do you think you would have time to give us a updated house plant tour now that you are spending time in two places and how it has changed what you have in your apt compared what it use to be? Thanks love ya videos
Love from.india❤️🍃🍃
I'm glad yours isn't well braided either. I have no idea how to rebraid mine after changing its soil and I basically just tied the upper parts together LOL. The videos on how to do it are useless to me.
💚
My dye, water no water I don't know what happened
I don't know what to do, Thanks
Wow😭 this video came out after my money tree dies
Hi I'm Bismark from Ghana West Africa, I love your money plant. I need your help, how can I grow indoor plants.
🆘 I noticed today when I was Watering my Tree🌴 one on my Tree Trucks is Soft. What to do???
I don't over Water, I wait til it dry out, the test with the Moisture Meter to see the level. I don't have a Bug issue, I don't know what it could be.
I think that trunk is a goner, happened to my tree. It’s rotten, can happen. Give it a little tug and if it comes out just throw it away, don’t let the rot spread to the other trunks.
Is there a special dirt you use for the money tree? Or just any potting soil?
Regular potting soil. That is all it requires. Nothing fancy, you will waste money an different soils have different uses.
All Purpose Potting Soil is Fine
My Pachira Aquatica got really huge and turned into a tree
ur so lucky
I thought the Ti plant was a money tree. How many money trees are there or am I mistaken? My Ti plant is hopeless and I paid a lot for it. The leaves are always turning brown, even when they grow in before opening. Some videos say not enough water, some say too much. I can't win. It gets lots of light and humidity. I water it well when dry. Help
Indirect light
Root trimming!
I have a dead trunk (1 of 5 unbraided) in my 3 foot high plant. It is doing really well. Should I take it out or am I okay to leave it there? I am scared to damage the roots doing it and it will lose some of the character of the plant.
If you have a rotting root absolutely remove it. It's going to spread. She really should unbraid hers. The braid chokes nutrients.
@@Jays81305girl Thanks for explaining. I also have one dead trunk. I have noticed that since this has occurred that the leaves are dropping and curling a bit. A will repot it and remove/unbraid that trunk then. Do you recommend anything else when unbraiding and repotting? Mine is about 4 foot tall. Cheers ☺️
Whats the best soil for a money tree?
succulent cactus soil ( I read somewhere)
❤️
Lol dope
It seems it’s root bound and oxygen is not reaching to the roots.
If you stay connected with nature placed any houseplant or indoor plants in any corner of your house. It will make your house more presentable.
When you get that dry-soil problem (water wont absorb and the root remains dry), the solution is to use water that is hot: it absorbs straight into the heart of the root.
Thank you . How interesting. I’ll try this.
I took mine outside today. Knocked the soil off AND...there was a rubber band around the roots! Total heartbreak. REALLY? Couldn't the grower use something biodegradable? I guess when buying ANY plant from Walmart take that plant apart the first week you have it. Poor plant!
Mine was the same 😕😪
@@Cochita322 since that day, it has been growing in water. It has made ALOT of new leaves. 🌿
Thanks for sharing this. Sad that they do this to these living things. All about money. It gives me more reason to repot now and check the roots. I have one dead trunk in the braid.
Q pena no poder entender el idioma ,los videos están hermosos e interesante no se podrán traducir?
Hay muchos videos que youtube traduce automáticamente y los subtítulos son sorprendentemente buenos. A mí sólo me figuran los subtítulos en español desde la compu, pero te tendrías que fijar. No sé bien cuál es el criterio para que youtube los traduzca, pero la mayoría de Planterina tienen la traducción automática, también varios de Becca de la Plants.
Ah y otra cosa, respondiendo a tu pregunta jaja, en otro video respondió a esa duda particularmente. Dijo que es muy caro pagarle a un traductor que haga los subtítulos, y no sólo los tendría que traducir al español te podrás imaginar; prefiere invertir toda esa plata de otra forma en el canal, como pagándole a un segundo editor o algo así.
I'm sure your money plant is an umbrella plant here. UK.
👍❤👍
With the name Aquatica in the name? wouldn't it need a lot of water and I've read that its a wetland plant?
It's really weird to see you wearing gloves ...
Greetings my dear ....

and that is why you bottom water
Can someone help me, my money tree is really dried base at the bottom like some sort of disease. That’s spreading upward, what should I do?
