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.

Toddler approved!
Format: Board book
My 2 year old loves this book! The pictures are beautiful, he's learned the names of all of the bugs, and it's a nice small size that's easy to read using one hand with my toddler in my lap before bedtime. I bought this when he was around 18 months old and it is still a hit.

Great book!
Format: Board book
I really like this book it includes: ladybug, bumblebee, praying mantis, firefly and (monarch) butterfly. So a good selection of bugs a small child is likely to experience in their yard or park in North America. For the photo board book aged children I really prefer that they discuss vocabulary that the child will be able to use to describe the world around them so I appreciate that most kids will see most of these bugs fairly easily and frequently. I did question the praying mantis since I see them much less frequently than the other bugs in the book but my husband said it is an exciting bug when kids do see it so he supports the choice--I think a fly or mosquito might have been a somewhat more useful choice as far as vocabulary our son could use most often. I liked that they did say the butterfly was a monarch but typically used butterfly so if a child lives where other butterflies are more common they learned the more general term. I think fireflies are less common in some regions but they are so magical as a small child that I think it is a good choice.
