Money Tree: How to Grow, Trunk Thickening Techniques, & Braiding Tips (Pachira aquatica, P. glabra)

The Money Tree, or Pachira aquatica, is one of the all around very best houseplants that everyone can have success growing. These lovely indoor trees can live for decades, over time often creating bulbous unique trunks. They often come with pre-braided trunks that look amazing over time. In this video I give a brief background on the plants, talk about their general care, give tips for keeping their braids in tact, and finish up with techniques for generating thick trunks, including root pruning. #moneytree #houseplants #plants
