Aww my heart hurts for your plant that got over watered. It was so beautiful 😭❤️
Yes, indeed. :( It was so beautiful.
Just a tip, you might want to clean out the pot you’re using when the soil gets nasty, it could reintroduce all the bacteria and mold into you’re freshly potted plant!
Thanks for the tip! You are absolutely right 🪴
Thank you!
Thank you so much Anna. One of the 5 stems was rotting, didn't know what to do. Thanks to your video was a walk in the park. Removed also the rubber band, Glorious, you rule. Thumbs up lady.
I had a whole conversation with you even though you had no idea 😆 When you were asking "Should I cut the top branches. I don't know if I should? Should I?" I was saying yes, cut them. Yep! You should. Give it a try..lets see what happens! Lol
Thanks for the video! I have a money tree that looks very similar. So I'm hoping this works!
Haha :) I wish I could hear you. That's so nice of you. I actually cut them and thought at leats one would rot, but all stems got rotten in water pretty fast, as they have been already damaged.
That’s why I unbraid them a little in case one of the stalks die. Still leave them with a little twist for interest, but makes removing or separating at a later date much easier.
Hi Caryn. How do you unbraid them a little? They are wooden stems. I cannot unbraid them a little. It's either unbraiding and planting them far from each other, or not unbraiding at all. The wooden stems have their shape and are not flexible. If you set them apart a little bit, the holes and twists will not match any more. Or what do you mean?
My third money tree had those rotten roots. It’s very hard to keep money tree alive. Anna thank you for your videos! I did learn a lot ❤
My money tree is constantly dropping leaves. Finally, I figured out over watering is the problem. The care card specifically mentioned that the soil should be moist. I have stopped watering and waiting for the soil to dry out before I water it again. I still don't know it will live or die. I trying my level best.
Hi Aditi, yes, unfortunately, everyone says that these plants shall be always moist, but they rot so easily. I always let mines get dry between watering
Your soil held on to too much moisture and that is why the roots rotted..it was also too heavy..not porous enough and basically strangled the root system and that is why the roots were so short. You can amend the soil for better drainage by taking some succulent and cactus soil then add some pumice stone, perlite, coco coir. Good luck with the tree. I have plants and I love them all.
Hi Kimmie, you are absolutely right. I have repotted it already. The soil was very heavy and not suitable for Pachiras
Thanks for sharing Anna, I got the same issue with my plant. Now I got idea thanks again. I'm happy that i see your channel. God bless.
So nice of you. Thank you very much. I'm happy to e-meet you here, Thomas
Very nice presentation. Thank you Anna! Do you think it makes sense to dry the roots (sun) before replanting?
Thank you for sharing this information. 🙌🙌❣️🙌🙌
Thanks for watching :)
It’s not mold.it’s perlite-the component used to make soil better drained and aerated.idk why ppl in the comments are freaking out.
Perlite is very common to be put in the soil
Hi Nicole. I use perlite for all of my plants. Perlite is white and it turns yellow from water/salts in water. I meant the egg-like balls in the soil.
you did such a good job saving that money to grow again
Thank you. Yes, some stems had to be removed, but it is growing well now
Hi Anna,
I bought a money tree from a garden centre. It was lovely but I over watered it. The trunk turned darker and now the bark is loose, wrinkly and splitting. Most of the leaves have fallen off. I have repotted it and changed the old soil but I don't think it's happy. Maybe my house is too cold! Please help xx
Hi Anna, This has been so helpful! We have just had some very hot weather here in the UK which meant I had to block out the sun/light and my money tree stopped growing but I was still watering, and yes, I over watered it, not realising water was collecting in the saucer. And because it was in the dark I was not noticing two of the stems starting to shrink (go wrinkly) and die! I just removed an already dead stem, like you here, which was rotten. I'm hoping I have got in there soon enough!! Can stems come back once they have started to die, but are still green and slightly shrunken and the bases still seem nice and firm? Thanks!
Hi Kelvin. No, I don't think so. Once the stem gets rotten, it continues till the whole stem is rotten. :(
@@AnnasViolets This was what I feared! 😞 Oh well, ...I still have two healthy stems remaining.
With your plants you are absolutely gorgeous
So beautiful and lovely plant 🍀
Very nice sharing 👍 please stay connected 🌿
Thank you, I will
I have seven 4.5 ft braided money tree inside my house and theyre thriving. Each time I water, I give little. I feel the soil with my hand. I also spray the leaves with water periodically. And I talk to them. Theyre growing so many branches and fat vibrant green leaves. Each of them has branches with 7 leaves.
Thank you!
Thank YOU for watching :)
What type of oil do you used?
Hi I’ve been needing help saving my money tree! My parents gift it to me, and it was growing beautifully, suddenly it started having yellow/brown leaves, I thought it had root rot so I repotted it into a bigger pot since it got bigger and got the soil at how depot called Miracle Gro Potting Mix for plants. I don’t know if that was the wrong soil for it? But ever since it’s been dying !! I’m so sad! I want to save it but I don’t know what to do. What soil do u recommend for it? Kellogg’s , succulent and palm and citrus soil would work?? Should I change the soil? What should I do? :( please help!
Hi Kimberly. When you repotted, did you check the roots? Were some roots rotten? Maybe also check the stems. Are they hard, or maybe one is a bit soft? As for the soil, in my area they are sold mostly in coco coir, so I have two that grow in this kind of potting mix. But when I repot, I usually use a good quality universal potting mix, and add a bit of perlite. I think the most important here is the pot. I have the best experience with these plants, when they grow in ceramic pots with a big hole. Ceramic pots breath, the air ventilation is much better and the soil gets dry faster. I can even see if the soil is moist by just looking at the pot.
It did not have no root rot at all, so I wasn’t sure what else it could be. Now it only got worse, and I’m thinking the miracle gro potting mix is not good for it, it seems to be a month already and the soil feels damp. So now I believe it is getting root rot and overwatered.
The single stem one looks very cool and unusual!
Thanks, Liza :)
Wow super
Thank you so much 🪴
I bought a small 7stalk.. I'm wondering.. Do they grow braided or should I unbraid and braid them again as they grow?
Hi. You can leave it like that for now. The new stems will go straight, they will not braid themselves. When they are a bit long, you can continue braiding them

Why don't you put it in the sun until you see new growth?
@@jeremy11allen I wish I could. I live in Germany, there is not that much sun now :)
What kind of oil did you use?
@@AnnasViolets Hi, can I use Miracle-Gro potting soil? Also, you mentioned neem oil to treat the leaves and stems. Do you mix the neem oil with water? I'm trying to save my plant. He started dying after I watered and sprayed the leaves. I had never sprayed the leaves before only watered once the soil was completely dry. Im sad now and trying to save him. I'm trying to be a plant mom.
Hii..well I'm very new to the planting and I put my pachira in sun for about an hour didn't knew that all the leafs and new baby stems would burn to death and die🥲.. hence i cut those off and keeping it inside only... I don't know what to do should i just keep it this way and new growth will come??
Question looks like I had root rot I cut back the roots and replanted should I water immediately or let the plant roots dry out first?
Let it dry for a couple of days
I have one that lost almost all of its leaves. There are like 3 left. I don’t think it is completely dead so I repotted it in another pot with better drainage and new soil. Should I keep it wet or kinda dry when trying to revive it?
I would say slightly moist, not wet, as most probably it was overwatered and that's the reason for losing the leaves
Did you end up rooting that stem that you cut?
I can't seem to get my soil to dry out! I used regular potting mix when we first bought it (the nursery let us pot it using some of their soil while we were there). I could not water it for 2 months and the soil would still be just soaked. So I removed the old soil and re-potted it in some succulent potting mix because it's supposed to be well draining, I even added some rocks to the bottom of the pot so moisture could escape better....it gets closer to drying out now and I have some leaves growing, but it still stays really moist. Sometimes I bring it outside on my deck in the evenings so the sunlight can help dry out the soil but it doesn't help much. I have two stems I think are dead, but before I repot I need to find a soil that won't retain so much moisture.
Hi Megan, it's definitely the quality of soil, but maybe also try to water it less? If the two stems are rotten, it's better to remove them as the others may get rotten as well
@@AnnasViolets thanks, I'm going to look around for some good soil as I'm not a fan of the succulent soil I bought. Once I get the soil I'll try to de-braid and remove the dead ones. Luckily it's still pretty young so it hasn't set into the braided shape too much, just the bottoms. My husband and I bought this tree for our unity ceremony for our wedding, so I really want it to live.
@@meganwoehl5277 I know I'm late writing this, and I do hope you got to save your money tree, but I just wanted to add that if your pot is too big for the plant, it means there will be way to much soil in it and when watered, the root system being too small for the big pot, it can't drink up that much from the wet soil. The pot should be one to two inches bigger than the root ball so when you repot it, don't go too big.
Hey I have a question so my grandma got a money tree for Mother’s Day but we had rubber bands still stuck on the bottom of the plant by accident what can we do to fix it the tree bottoms are soft now?
Hi Sakilah, unfortunately if the bottom of the plant, basically the wooden trunk is soft, it means it's rotten and in this case I don't think you can save the plant. But you can try to make cuttings from the green stems and put them into water. Not all, but some may give roots and you can at least propagate it that way
Hi, Anna, do you have an update of this one, were you able to save it and how is it doing now? My money tree has the same problem, and I'm trying to see if it's worth it to save it. Thank you in advance.
I don't have an update yet
Thanks for sharing 👍. Happiness in leaf 🍃 vlog
Thank you too 🪴
When I remove my stems and plant it again can I use the same soil or do I have to use new soil when pitying after the stem removal?
Hey. It's better to use fresh soil
@@AnnasViolets thank you 😊
So whats the main reason for the falling leaves and the the leaves that appear curled/deformed? Like the one you showed in this video.
The reason for falling leaves is overwatering. But if the leaves get deformed and fall off, and if you notice some grey patches on them, most probably it's thrips. Right after this video, I posted 2 other videos about how to identify thrips, the damage it causes and how to get rid of them. Maybe they will be helpful. Thank you so much for watching
What type of soil are you using ?
Hey Kimberly. Thanks for watching. I have a separate video with details about the soil. Please have a look, here it is:th-cam.com/video/h4aKvK6uhyQ/w-d-xo.html
I keep getting conflicting answers to know whether I'm over or underwatering my pachira aquatica. I repotted my pachira aquatica and then it started to drop a lot of leaves - they go brown and crunchy and then the whole leave drops off.
Hey Daniel, how big is the pot? How often do you water it? What is the temperature, where the plant grows?
@@AnnasViolets Hi Anna, thank you so much for your response. The plant is around 160cm high. The pot is around 40cm wide and around 35cm high - the pot was smaller before (around 32cm wide and 30cm high) but I've since repotted it. The temperature in the room is around 20 degrees celcius with decent natural (non direct) and artificial light. I'm watering it about 1 litre every 2 weeks. The leaves seem to be dropping since I've repotted it. The only thing I've seen online is that I should have drainage holes in the pot. Instead I put some water absorbing pebbles at the bottom of the pot.
@@danielgraaf5042 Thanks Daniel. These details help. I think 1 liter with 20C especially in case of a pot with no holes is too much. Your plant can even have root rot. Those pebbles will absorb water, but the evaporation is not good, there is not much air ventilation and the roots may get rotten. So, maybe it's a good idea to water less OR repot into a pot with holes OR put the plant in a warmer place OR everything together :)
@@danielgraaf5042 a pot with drain holes is a must.
Nice🎉❤🎉❤
I’m sorry but I could barely hear you. I just started watching your channel. You have great information. Thank you. I subscribed.
Hey Evlyne, I'm using a special mic now. The audio of recent videos should be better.
Did you find out if the stuff on the old soil was eggs or mold? I've seen something similar before on a couple of repots, couldn't figure out what it was.
Also I love how you don't leave out much of the process. Helps see the difficulty in doing this. I am about to have to do the same thing.
Thanks!!!
Hey Ashley, Thank you so much for watching. I am so happy that it helps. Honestly, I didn't see any insects coming out of these eggs. But I also had to repot it again and I actually removed the old soil completely, as the rot continued and I had to remove the 2nd stem as well. After struggling for about 2 months, the leaves were opening up all curled, now at least it seems the rotting process stopped, but it still doesn't look healthy
It’s likely just salt/mineral buildup. It’s actually pretty common and can be from tap water or fertilizer.
Awe I'm sorry to hear that your tree still isn't very happy 😢 at least you haven't given up on it!!
I still have yet to repot my money tree. It was given to me as a rescue, even though I don't really know what I'm doing with the plants I already have. Luckily I seem to be doing something right considering there are now multiple new growths coming in. Now that summer is coming up I am hoping it will make it since I have it outside (in a shady area that still gets plenty of non direct light).
As for the white stuff, I've been thinking it is mineral buildup. I've had to stop using tap water, it was causing all of my propagations and many other plants to rot due to having such hard city water.
Wishing you the best of luck with your green buddy 🤞❤
@@aabec017 thank you so much! I hope yours will grow beautifully, warm weather helps a lot.
@@DyllPkll Oh, no, there were round "balls", like eggs. Mineral/salt build up looks like white stains. There was that too, but I was worried about those balls in the soil
What type of oil did you spray with after you repotted it? Thank you.
Hey Micheal, it's neem oil
@@AnnasViolets thank you so much!
Pull from the bottom as bottom is bigger.. Use a scissors to help cut..can as wood soft & Rotten already.
Yeah, it was hard!
Just used this process. I lost 2 stems. I have 2 left hoping I can save it
Hi Jacy, sometimes it's hard to save them, when they get rotten, but I hope you can save some of the stems. 💜🪴
Hi my money tree leaves are very soft to touch almost like very fragile Not stiff like usual. Can you tell me what this means and what I can do to help
Hi, I'm not sure what you mean, as the leaves of money trees are very thin and soft for me. Do you think they may be wilted?
@@AnnasViolets I’m not sure how to describe it besides soft to touch ….
Why did you unbraid it? Is it bad if you just cut the rotten part of the stem and leave the rest as a woody stem that would hold the tree in a braided shape?
Hi Bushra, the whole stem at the bottom was rotten. I didn't want to leave it, as it would still continue to rot
pretty sure that those are nitrogen nodules that take in atmospheric nitrogen for plant,and not bug eggs,its called rhizobium
Thank you SO MUCH! I googled it. I have never heard of it. It seems you are right. They looked so scary for me, especially when the plant was rotting, I thought it's some insect's eggs 🪴
💚
Thanks for watching :)
The soil you are using is far too heavy for this plant. You need to add lava rock, sand, perlite & maybe some orchid bark. It will never be able to survive unless its able to breathe.
You are absolutely right. Perlite and lava rock is always a good idea
What what the name of the oil you sprayed on the roots? Please help my boyfriend got me this plant when I had my son and my trunks are moist I can’t let him die as it symbolizes my Sons life please help I’m so stressed out
Hey Ernnisa, first of all, thanks for watching! Please do not connect the life of a plant with the life of your son. Plants in pots will not live forever, but your son will have a very long and a happy life! :) If the stems of your plant are wet and mushy, they are most probably getting rotten. You can take the plant out of the soil, examine the roots, remove the rotten stems and plant the healthy stems in a new pot. And water just a little bit. Let the soil get completely dry. If all stems at the base are rotten, try to save the green growth at the top of the plant, by cutting the green young stems and putting them into water for propagation. They will give roots and you can plant them again. I sprayed neem oil, dilluted with water
I am plant lover, so how I can join you?

Adding a capful of 3% hydrogen peroxide per cup of water to your weekly water routine will help the soil remain airy & will help prevent root rot. Also adding a cup of diatomaceous earth to your potting soil is a great organic fungicide/insecticide.
Were you able to save your money tree?
Just one stem
Great video but please get to then point lol
Thanks for watching. 🪴
😂😭😭😭
Yea I’m like pressing fast forward cause she takes to long sheesh. It would have been better if she showed a few plants with different stages of rot and what to do for each .
I try to watch several of her videos.
They are all long winded & not getting to the point.
I tried, she's just not completely informative..
You are very beautiful!! muy guapa!!
Thank you! :)
@@AnnasViolets your welcome sweetie....un beso!!!💋
I don’t like that there is no updates or following up in your videos.
Please look in Playlists. For very specific videos on saving, propagation, I usually make videos after a couple of months
I need to improve your audio!
Thank you for this feedback. I'll do my best to improve it as soon as possible.
