Product details
With its beautiful large leaves and finely braided stems, the Pachira is a unique plant. It grows on a relatively thin and flexible stem that can be braided. In East Asia, according to Feng Shui teachings, the Pachira is considered an element that brings prosperity and happiness into the home. The five leaves on each branch symbolize the five fundamental elements of Feng Shui: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Additionally, the Pachira is a plant with many nicknames. The most common name is "money tree," as it is believed in the Far East that the leaves can catch money. This makes the plant a great gift for a birthday, housewarming, or wedding. The Pachira is a true tropical plant native to the swamps of East Brazil, Panama, and Costa Rica, where it can grow up to 20 meters tall.
Care:
The Pachira is ideal for people who sometimes forget their plants, as it is not very demanding. The braided trunk gives the Pachira a distinctive appearance. It prefers to be in a bright spot, but not too close to the window. It stores water in its stem, so the soil should be dry before watering again. Additionally, the plant should be watered in winter, as this encourages the formation of new leaves. Old leaves can be trimmed away. In summer, the Pachira needs to be watered about twice a week.
