Bring good fortune and lush greenery into your home with the Pachira Aquatica, also known as the Lucky Money Tree. With its iconic braided trunk and glossy green leaves, this striking houseplant is a symbol of prosperity and positive energy, perfect for brightening up homes and offices.

This plant is:
✔️ Easy to Care For
✔️ Fast Growing
✔️ Air-Purifying
✔️ Pet-Friendly 
✔️ Ideal for Bright Indoor Spaces
✔️ Great for Gifting

The Pachira Aquatica thrives in bright, indirect light and loves a stable environment. Its attractive braided stems and lush, palmate leaves make it a real showpiece, whether displayed as a tabletop feature or grown larger for a bold indoor statement.

✨ Each plant is individually hand-selected from current stock. Trunk shape, leaf fullness, and height may vary slightly – every Money Tree has its own unique charm.

🪴 Plants are shipped securely in nursery pots using recyclable and reused packaging materials, and each one includes a scannable QR code for full care instructions.

🪴 Quick Care Guide
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light – tolerates some lower light conditions
💧 Watering: Allow the top layer of soil to dry before watering again
💧 Humidity: Average home humidity is fine – appreciates occasional misting
💦 Extra Tip: Use our Highland Moss premium general houseplant potting mix to support strong, healthy growth

⚠️ Important:
The Pachira Aquatica is generally pet-friendly, but as with all plants, it’s best to discourage pets from chewing large amounts.

How often should I water my Pachira Aquatica?
Allow the top layer of soil to dry out before watering again. Over-watering can lead to root rot, so it’s crucial to check the soil moisture regularly.
Can the Pachira Aquatica thrive in low light conditions?
While it prefers bright, indirect light, it can tolerate lower light conditions. However, for optimal growth and health, try to place it in a spot with ample indirect sunlight.
Is the Pachira Aquatica suitable for beginners?
Yes, it’s an excellent choice for beginners due to its easy care and fast-growing nature. It’s also pet-friendly and air-purifying, making it a versatile addition to any indoor space.

Pachira Aquatica – Lucky Money Tree Houseplant Care Guide

Welcome to your go-to guide for caring for your new Lucky Money Tree! Known for its prosperity-bringing powers, this easy-care plant not only enhances your space but also purifies the air. Here’s how to keep it thriving:

☀️ Light

☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

Pachira Aquatica flourishes in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some lower light conditions, but for optimal growth, place it near a window where it receives plenty of indirect sunlight.

💧 Water

💧💧▫️ (Medium)

Water your Money Tree when the top layer of the soil feels dry. Be careful not to overwater, as it prefers to dry out slightly between waterings.

💧️ Temperature

💧️🌡️️▫️ (Average)

This plant loves a stable environment with temperatures ranging from 18°C to 24°C. Avoid placing it near drafts or heat sources to maintain a consistent temperature.

💦 Humidity

💦💦▫️ (Moderate)

The Lucky Money Tree enjoys average home humidity but appreciates occasional misting, especially during dry months.

💦 Repotting

Repot your Pachira Aquatica every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally our Highland Moss premium general houseplant potting mix, to ensure healthy growth.

🐾 Pet Friendliness

This plant is generally pet-friendly but discourage pets from chewing on the leaves. It’s always best practice to keep plants out of reach if your pets are curious nibblers.

🪴 Recommended Locations at Home

Place your Money Tree in living rooms, home offices, or any bright indoor space where its vibrant greenery can be appreciated daily. It makes a statement whether on a tabletop or as a larger floor plant.

🌬️🪴 Air Purifying

The Pachira Aquatica is known for its air-purifying qualities, making it a great addition to your home for cleaner, fresher air.

✨ Other Plant Features

Each Money Tree is unique with its own charm due to its individually hand-selected nature. Its braided trunk and lush leaves not only add a touch of elegance but also symbolize growth and prosperity.
