Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Money Tree safe for cats and dogs?

Yes, Pachira aquatica is completely non-toxic to cats, dogs, and humans. It is ASPCA verified as pet-safe, making it a perfect worry-free choice for families who want to enjoy its prosperity symbolism and distinctive braided beauty safely throughout their home.

Where should I place my Money Tree for best Feng Shui?

For maximum prosperity energy, place your Money Tree in the wealth corner (southeast area) of your home or office. Near entrances is also excellent for welcoming good fortune. Avoid bathrooms or dark corners, and ensure it receives adequate light for healthy growth.

How do you care for a Money Tree?

Money Trees need bright indirect light, watering when the top 2-3 inches of soil are dry, moderate humidity of 40-60%, and temperatures between 65-80°F. Use well-draining soil and avoid overwatering. Feed monthly during the growing season and repot every 2-3 years.

What's the story behind the Money Tree's prosperity symbolism?

Legend tells of a poor farmer who prayed for prosperity and discovered this tree. He sold its nuts and became wealthy, leading to the belief that Money Trees bring good fortune. In Feng Shui practice, the five-leaflet hands represent the five elements, creating balanced, wealth-attracting energy.

How is the braided trunk created?

The distinctive braided trunk is created by carefully intertwining multiple young Pachira stems while they're still flexible, then growing them together over time. This traditional technique creates the iconic sculptural appearance that makes Money Trees so recognizable and beautiful.

How large will my Money Tree grow indoors?

Indoor Money Trees typically reach 3-6 feet tall, growing slowly and maintaining their distinctive braided trunk structure. The manageable size makes them perfect for homes and offices while still providing impressive visual impact and prosperity symbolism.

Did not protect
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
Product smells great and goes on better than most mineral sunscreens. It was labeled as "reef safe" so I assumed it would work well in water. It did not. After just a half hour in the Caribbean water, my skin was red. The product did not say "waterproof" so we decided to use it only when we were away from the beach. Unfortunately, even in the cold spring weather of our northern climate we still ended up with red skin. We had no choice but to throw away the rest of the bottle. Do not expect this lotion to protect you from the damaging rays of the sun.

Great sport block for sensitive skin
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I use this whole playing tennis or pickleball, it might be a little much for everyday. Does not irritate my sensitive skin. Rich enough for dry skin. Very slightly white cast that quickly fades. Does not run or bother my eyes for sports. Basically perfect in all categories.
