- HOW TO UNBRAID A MONEY TREE 🌟 Let's do a fun project together! I want to separate my money tree plants and repot them to look more beautiful! 💜 Talking all about Pachira trees and then seeing if it's possible to separate the different stems into individual trees when the plant is already this large. Join me for an unconventional repotting session and let's chat about Money Trees! 🥰
Also showing you some footage of the coolest fruit that Money trees make!! Did you know that they are edible and produce a nut that is harvested as a crop in some places?? 🥰🌟🪴🌿
What do you like about Money Trees? What is the common name you use for this plant? It has many! Do you have any stories about your Money Tree bringing you financial good fortune? 🤗🌱✨
I bought this money tree for only $37 so I feel like doing this project was a great deal too!

![Money Tree (Pachira Aquatica) Plant Care Tips & what NOT to do! [get BIG leaves!]](/img/n.gif)
Okay okay I have another little story too- right after I finished this repotting I got an email with the biggest sponsorship offer that I have ever received 😳💸🌿 WAS IT A COINCIDENCE OR WAS IT THE MONEY TREE’S MAGIC??✨ The email dinged into my inbox literally 4 minutes before I finished filming the video🤯 Lol this whole thing sounds like one of those old spam emails that tells you to forward it or you’ll have bad luck haha but it really happened so idk what to think 🥹 Has anything like this happened to you??💜
Anyways I ended up turning down the sponsorship offer because I felt like the company’s practices were shady…but I feel like there’s maybe really something to the money tree bringing good monetary luck and wanted to share this story with you!! 😁💫✨💸💜 Financial blessings to you all! 🌿💰💸
The only way to find out is to look into it.. you deserve the best. Your work is wonderful and you really are funny and your attitude is beautiful. It’s a blessing and I believe it could be the money tree too 😁. Start looking into those sponsors research them. Don’t miss out on your blessings. You even have me going to the stores picking up plants. lol!! Every time I watch you I get plant fever lol..
“There’s something really liberating about making a mess this big” couldn’t agree more
I never buy the braided money tree but now I will. Cuz taking it apart makes it look so much better!!!!that singular one looks bonsai’d.
The “money shirt” 💵💸💰EPIC…you are awesome 😎😂 nice shirt, lovely plant, and even better greatly detailed information. Thanks 😊
Heheh thanks so much!! so glad you enjoyed the video 🤗💜🌿✨💕
Wow I REALLY like how both pots turned out. At the beginning of this video I noted to myself that I probably would never desire to own one again (it was one of my first plants, eventually declined)… but by the end of this video I was mentally searching my house for a window with enough light for one!
Love the unbraided look so much. And the on theme shirts was just... chef's kiss lol!
Easily the best money tree houseplant video I've seen. I appreciate your thorough explanation on the background of plant, the fact that you know there's a difference in the two pachira species, how they grow in the wild, etc. So many plant videos totally glaze over or don't mention any of this important info. Congrats on your lovely new arrangements! The single in the white pot is magnificent!
I love it when you post new videos. I get so excited. Like OMG!!!!!! Because of you I have purchase the strings of turtles and the money tree. Please keep posting more videos 😊
Ahh yay I love to hear it!!🥰💜 that means a lot, thank you😁💕🌿 I hope you’re enjoying your turtles and money tree!✨ thanks for watching have a great week!💜
Thanks for your enthusiastic video! Was given a money tree for my Birthday and have it in my bay window facing East and it’s growing like a weed. As I’m a big fan of nature(plants,animals etc.), I own various plants and a cat named Winston!
Got an 18" baby... 5 tightly braided trees, i forced it to unbraid. it had a really tight rootball that couldnt be separated so i left it alone. I was successful separating the baby trunks, & have been happy with how its acting now. It didnt seem to grow for a year after, but now is a thriving & much happier plant. Its not in a strangle hold with itself. Growing again. Its now almost 3" tall, & enjoying life. Yay!! 🤩
Ooh I’m so happy to hear this story!! Thanks so much for sharing 🥰💜 I’m so glad your plant is thriving after the unbraiding!😁💫🌿✨
Yes! Ive been obscessed with freeing money trees since your first video. I'm looking for a big one tomorrow.
I’ll be honest I didn’t think you would be able to unbraid such a big plant 😮 They turned out great, very sculptural 😀🇨🇦
Hahaha I had doubts too-the entire time until quite close to the end!! 😅 Thanks for watching, I’m so glad you liked how it turned out ☺️💜🌿
Totally doing this now! ❤ I love it!!
Omg being unbraided the single tree looks like something from Dr Seuss!
Admire your effort! The end result is awesome!🎉
Your planty intellect is soooo admirable! Thank you for sharing it with us! ❤❤
I did not see your vision when you started this project. I was like why is she doing this, but once they were potted. I love the 3 and then you did the single and you are right even better. So cool! Now my thought. I have a little money tree. Do I wait 5 years or should I go to Lowes today! I love your videos. You are my sunshine.
When I bought my Money tree I chose the unbraided one, because I thought no one would want it, I have it for over a year now, it grew taller than me, and recently I repotted it and separated the three trunks, because I saw your first video on the Money tree ^^ I'm so happy I did it, looks so much better. Also thinking of cutting the top off the tallest one. Thanks for the inspiration! Greetings from Bulgaria
Did the exact same thing with my money tree last year!! It's doubled in size and has massive healthy leaves now
Love the video just bought a dried up tree for half off and cut the rot off the stems then repotted them into single branches like yours ! Awesome
The single one does look so beautiful 😍 !
I’m really loving the look of the single plant with the pot you chose. It makes me want to go look for a money tree now 😂❤
Haha I also always think of cold stone creamery whenever I make my potting mix right on the table like that! This was so interesting, I really appreciate how your videos give me new scientific insight on plants I would normally consider a little boring for being too “domesticated”. I never liked these plants because they seemed so manicured but seeing that huge fruiting Pachira in the conservatory and the way yours look unbraided has really changed my mind about them!
🤩I’m so happy to hear that you think I make boring plants fun! I really enjoy sharing the cool facts that add allure to the commonest of plants✨✨💜 I felt the same way about the boring ol’ money tree until I spent time around the huge one in the conservatory and was amazed!!🥰
Hahah also glad I’m not alone on the cold stone thing lol 😂
Thanks so much for watching and for this comment I really appreciate it🌿😊💕 I hope you’re having a great week!💜
Oh wow it’s so much nicer now. I was so nervous when you started but definitely the right decision imo . Love your channel and ideas , thank you 🙏 from uk 🇬🇧
Great job 😊
This is my first video and I am hooked on your delivery. Awesome info and amazing topic. I do have one question for you. The single stem in that beautiful pot does it have a drainage or no? I have a money tree but I am very new to its care. Thank you so much, you have a new follower, so pleased to meet you. I am so looking forward to all you have to offer...🌹🌹
Love how you share your knowledge of plants. Always look forward to your video's. You deserve a good sponsor. Best of luck.
Yes! They look amazing❤ Love the single planter too
Wow! Good job.
I have one thank you for showing me how to separate the braid. You did a good job. I’m from NYC and I grow all my plants in pots.❤
They look SO COOOOOL!
🎉🎉 it looks so good
Can’t wait to see the update on these… 😊
Been Ben watching your videos. Lol. Really love the unbraided plant.
I love this plant yeah many of these are twisted when you see them in store. The large one and even the mini ones. Which i am not a fan of. I have one with a thick chunky bark stem money tree. This year definitely want to get more tree like plants. I have come across other plant species with twisted stems like the Schefflera and Draceana aswell.
Looks good 👌🏽
I think it looks gorgeous 😍
I ❤the way it looks without braid
I love it. Now, they all have a unique look.❣️
Thanks for sharing! This was amazing to watch!! They do look stunning in the different pots!! Great work!
Wow those look great! At the beginning I was like oh no what are you thinking!? I was wrong 😂
Hahah I was also wondering if the whole thing would be a failed experiment but I’m glad I decided to persevere lol! I’m glad you like how they turned out😁💜 Thanks for watching Amy!!💕🌿✨
Welcome to the allure of bonsai!
didn't think this was possible, looks great. good luck~
Going to give this a try for my dining room table. Very dramatic ❤
The plants look so cool now!!! It makes me wanna go by a braded money tree :))))
I have a pretty large money tree in my kitchen.
At first I was like, NOOOOO!
But why do I LOVE IT!! I have a braided money tree it’s 5years old. I will not do it to that one, but you better believe I will be buying one just to unbraid it. I LOVE THIS!
I don't own a money tree but I really like what you did. It looks so cool. It looks so free now, not confined. I may have to get one just so I can free it. ☺
This was so informative and interesting! This is one of my favorite plants! ❤
I love that they do well in a darker spot. Makes them easy to place and they are still so pretty.
Perfect timing. My friend has a huge plant that has long outgrown her house, to be honest. Ever since I infected her with the plantnerd virus, she‘s wanted to do something for this plant, but it had lived with her for so long, somehow she just couldn't bring herself to do it.
I'm sure your video will motivate her.
Pictures to follow (hopefully).
Thank you so much.
You make me want to unbraid both of mine. They’re not as huge as yours but I love the new look of yours. So beautiful 🥰
What a fantastic idea! Love it!
Thanks so much!!🥰🤗💜🌿💫✨💕🎋
@@reallybigplant soooo I was at Costco this morning and they have a braided 3plants) money tree and I hesitated…but I can’t stop thinking about it 🙃🤪💜
Customary ‘money’ shirt to work on your Money Tree!! LOL
Gotta dress for the occasion!! 💁♀️🌿✨😁💜
I have a money tree that I got second hand, it had lost 2 out of 3 stems already. the one stem I have was quite sad looking but has 3 branches. It has since not stopped growing and it did flower for me two or three times. the flowers didn´t look like much and made a big mess so I simply cut them off. It gets very bright light and has a relatively big pot. I live in denmark so weather isn´t the best normally, but it seems very happy. It´s already about my height (164cm) so I´m happy to hear that they propagate good, in case it ever gets too big. Mine also definitely has a front and a back, it´s flush against a wall and looks amazing from the front, but really weird from the back, but that´s how I want it, I´m also not much into rotating plant, I do it only with a few like calatheas/stromante.
I'll admit I thought you were crazy but I love the result!
I love the result! 😍 I bought a braided moneytree last week similiar to yours, now I also want to unbraid it ... but maybe I buy another one to unbraid, because I like both looks :D (fun fact in Germany we call it "Glückskastanie" like "lucky chestnut") Please keep us updated how you trees keep doing ☺
Lol, I just did this to my rescue but mine was about Ten inches. Great job, I ❤how it turned out.
I've always wanted one! They looked so stunning after you unbraided them... I may have to call off my plant ban 😅💚🪴
Yay I’m so glad you like how it turned out!💜✨ I don’t go on plant bans so I can’t break my plant ban LOL😫😅 but the good news is money trees are usually findable any time of year so I bet a nice one will be waiting for you when you’re buying again😁🌿✨💕
This is absolutely a fun project n even better when it’s done “crazy style”!!😂😂 I LOVE IT SO MUCH! I might just go n get one n try this out.. maybe 😭 They look gorgeous, I love the single one too!!!! So so exciting!! (First time commenting, you brought me out my shell😆) This is just everything I want to do!!!! You most def increased the beauty of this plant!! YOU ARE TALENTED N AMAZING!!!! I look fwd to your next vid 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Monica!! Thank you for commenting!! 🥰💜✨ I’m so glad you liked watching the crazy style repot LOL 😆 I hope it goes well for you if you decide to try it!, best of luck!!💫🌿🌟 thanks so much for watching I hope you have a great week!!🤗💕💜
@@reallybigplant 🤗♥️
Neat, kinda like Literati form bonsai.
So I’ve actually propagated from a money tree leaf, didn’t think it would grow roots but left it in water for several weeks and it formed roots. Sadly it did die when I potted it in soil, but it is possible to get the leaves to form roots.
💚
I have a small braided Natal Mahogany tree that I might try to unbraid.
I always wondered if it is bad to braid the trees. When they grow the trunk gets bigger, but aren't they in the way of each other? The single tree looks so good 😍 especially with the pot! Your shirt is perfect on theme. I love your videos, they are entertaining and informative 😀
I'm 9 minutes in, and just yelling at the screen! lol I've unbraided my huge and mature money tree a couple of years ago. I unpotted first, detangled the roots, and loosened up the braid from the bottom up. It was very easy.
I luv this! Personally not a fan of the braids(and always wondered if I would need to keep braiding)
Okay.. I have to say I was a little skeptical at first. I thought why unbraid the money tree? The results though were so beautiful! My money tree has been naturally unbraiding so I think I’ll just let it continue to do so. 😂 Really enjoyed this.. would love to see an update on these. 🌱
I had one and it died and now I'm inspired to give it another try. Will definitely unbraid it because the aesthetic is so much better and more natural looking
💚💚💚💚💚❣️
I’m surprised at the tiny fine roots! I guess that’s how a tree can be a good houseplant.
Now I want to buy a small money tree 😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Now you know you just noticed that stem missing. And then all of a sudden you say that's another reason why I need to un braid it. Girlllll
What is the name of the white stuff that you mixed on the soil and one thing, what is the name of the fertilizer that you used and one last thing, where we can buy those kind of indoor fertilizer?
Thank you in advance for your sincere response😍
I’m wondering if the trunks were wet, they might be more bendable.
I wonder if this would have been easier if you had soaked the plant for a bit beforehand?
Seems to me sense you said the leaves gro back quickly everything would have been much easier if you just gave it a big chop first 🤷🏻♀️ I think I also would have soaked the bare root plants in a bucket of water with nutrients over night before repotting
Do you always use just the coco choir and perlite?
No I used to use a mix from a local shop in San Francisco that had a lot of bark and small porous rocks (but still no compost) but I haven’t been able to find anything comparable yet where I live now. Everything I’ve tried so far is so expensive or seems to smell bad when I water it so I have been just mostly using this coir and perlite combo, sometimes I’ve been adding in leca balls. I’m still on the lookout for a good affordable indoor potting mix 🥲💜🌿✨
Ideally I’d also amend with something like orchid bark but it’s usually pretty expensive
Can they grow if unbraided?
I always wondered how the braid would stay as it grew taller? My question is now solved…just unbraid it! 😂
i had to unbraid mine too because one started to die
I have an issue with my money tree losing all its leaves and then regrowing everything. It's done it multiple times. Any idea what could be causing it?
What does it mean if the money tree has 7 leaves ?
I’m surprised how smalllll the root system is. Since it grows in moist areas should money trees be watered before they go dry?
Generally you don’t want them to be as dry as this one, it got a lot drier than I’d recommend 😅 However they don’t want to be constantly wet if they’re in a lower light situation, and if it’s in low light you should let it dry lightly between waterings. Even though they grow near/in water in nature, they don’t want to be in standing water or soggy soil for long when potted indoors. In nature the water flows and is constantly aerated, whereas it can get gross and stagnant in a houseplant container pretty quickly if it stays wet for long. Also my tree was super dry but still looking great, but I’ve killed money trees pretty quickly by overwatering so they definitely prefer it drier rather than wetter. Hope this helps, thanks for watching! 😊💜✨💕🌿
@@reallybigplant I had a beautiful one and killed so now I have a small stumpy type and it struggles to stay alive and I don’t know how to help it. It’s in a NE window. Seems all my windows are on this side or I’d try a brighter window
So.. I just to my Money Tree (Ching Ching) about a month ago... I'm not going to let her stay braided....
The old soil had rot bacteria in it
WHY? My tree died?
RIP nice table 🙏
I can't keep up with the various house plants that all are called "money trees" somewhere! In my country and language , we call crassula ovata, the jade plant a money tree. I'm sure there are couple of other plants too which I've seen in the international plant community to be called as money trees. That's why I don't like common names anymore in what comes to plants. They are so inaccurate. Nowadays I even recognize scientific names better than the common plant names in my language. So many times I find the common names to be a little stupid and degrading... For example, Peperomia obtusifolia is "an old woman's plant" and tradescantia " a gossip". Both of the names in Finnish are negatively loaded words and not like a sweet grandma or a little gossip. I don't want negativity around my plant hobby🙄🌱
